A Child Alone with Strangers
A Child Alone with Strangers
Description
When young Henry Thorne is kidnapped and held prisoner in a remote farmhouse surrounded by miles of forest, he finds himself connecting with a strange force living in the woods - using that bond to wreak havoc against his captors. Unknown to the boy, however, is that this ancient being has its own reasons for wanting the interlopers gone - there is something hidden beneath the house, tucked away in the dark, damp root cellar...waiting for its return.
'Fracassi's novel hits me like a cross between McCammon and '80s King. Might be one of them summer blockbusters readers love.' - Laird Barron, author ofWorse Angels
'A Child Alone with Strangersstarts out as a slow burn procedural with supernatural elements and inexorably cranks itself into a pulse-pounding symphony of eldritch horrors and all-too-human violence. Philip Fracassi is the best sort of horror writer - one who is unafraid to hunt for light in even the darkest places.' - Shaun Hamill, author ofA Cosmology of Monsters
