Reviews

There arent enough illustrations used in YA fiction, and Alex T Smiths terrifying, gothic pictures complement this dark tale beautifully -- The Times
A deliciously succinct, creepy thriller interspersed with Alex T. Smith's shadowy, atmospheric images -- The Guardian
Dawson deals very deftly with powerful issues of life, religion and death. The emotions felt by Sam and his circle are highly nuanced, despite the brevity of the book" -- Books for Keeps
This beautifully presented novella is creepy, disturbing and genuinely chilling ... a substantial and complex addition to any super-readable bookshelf -- BookTrust
"A cracking Halloween read pulls no punches and delivers some ghastly shocks a real page turner" -- The Letterpress Project
