Description
A folk horror story of deadly rivalry and ancient magic. In rural South West England, Tom and his family move into a fixer-upper with an eerie wood at its foot. Their new home is a source of unease from the start, particularly after the previous owner's mysterious death. As tensions rise with their elderly neighbours, Tom's dreams of contentment are threatened by a campaign of petty damage and disruption. The situation escalates, and Tom becomes increasingly isolated and tormented. He begins to suspect that his neighbours possess unearthly powers, drawing on a malicious magic even older than the wood and strange barrow. A tense and scary horror novel, Cunning Folk is a story about the darker side of human nature and the power of the unknown.
