Story
In 1893, there's no such thing as witches. There used to be, in the wild, dark days before the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but tidy charms and nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any measure of power, she must find it at the ballot box. But when the three Eastwood sisters join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to pursue the forgotten ways that might turn the women's movement into the witch's movement.

Fascinating idea for a story-a little let-down by narrator

Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
There's something bad in the water....
Lola Nox is the daughter of a celebrated horror filmmaker and thinks she knows all about Harrow Lake, the setting of his most famous movie.
But when her father is brutally attacked and she's sent there to stay with her reclusive grandmother, she realises the town is harbouring secrets more horrifying than she could ever have imagined. Not only is this the place where her mother disappeared without a trace, it's a town holding on to a dark past that's even more frightening than her father's movies. As Lola is drawn deeper into the town's grip, she starts to question what's real, what happened to her mother, and whether she'll ever get out of Harrow Lake alive.

Twisty psychological horror, absolutely brilliant performance by reader.
Harrow Lake follows the perspective of the daughter of a famous movie director when sent to the town her missing mother grew up in, and where her father made his most famous film.
We know Lola will be missing by the end of the book, how and why and what she will uncover in this dark creeping horror tale is yet to be discovered.
With themes of lost innocence, the dark side of small towns, family secrets, and mental health wound around a folklore legend of Mr Jitters who comes tap tapping in the night, it’s a thrilling atmospheric tale.
The audiobook reader does a truly fantastic performance with Lola’s story especially communicating her moods, fear and the tension both sensory description and the internal struggle within Lola, there were points where I genuinely had to turn it off when listening late at night as I was scared.
The two interview sections however are less convincing than the powerful main performance though.

bad book but good ending
to me the writing was so extremely over the top. I cringed at like every line. the story dragged on too much and it felt like everything just happened at the end. I dont know, probably one of the worst thrillers I've read. BUT the ending was honestly really good. one thing that wouldve bumped this up to 3 stars would be if the interview would be a bigger part of the book.

The word optimal is no longer optimal
aarrfgghh STOP with the word optimal!!! it was so irritating.
The storyline was good, not as atmospheric and scary as I had hoped for and instantly obvious if you have studied psychology (which I haven't!) what the story is actually about. The readers were excellent though and it was an interesting listen

The narrator did a great job
The storyline were alright. I like how the narrator portray the voice over for Lola and she makes it sound creepy for the whole story. She did a great job not to forget the other 2 narrator for the interview transcript who also able to portray the emotion when narrating the role.
