This is a ghost story. It is a story about werewolves, and things that go bump in the night. It is a story of an ill-fated land, the pathless moors of Northern England so well chronicled in Wuthering Heights. And it is the story of a real family whose destiny it is to deal with this darkly glamorous and dangerous world.
When young Emily Brontë helps a wounded man she finds at the foot of an ancient pagan shrine in the remote Yorkshire moors, her life becomes contentiously entwined with his. He is Alcuin Curzon, embittered member of a sect working to eradicate the resurgent plague of lycanthropy in Europe and northern England.
But Emily’s father, curate of the Haworth village church, is responsible for having unwittingly brought a demonic werewolf god to Yorkshire forty years ago—and it is taking possession of Emily’s beloved but foolish and dissolute brother. Curzon must regard Emily’s family as a dire threat.
In spite of being at deadly odds, Emily and Curzon find themselves thrown together in fighting werewolves, confronting pagan gods, even saving each other from the lures of moorland demons. And in a final battle that sweeps from the haunted village of Haworth to a monstrous shrine far out on the moors, the two of them must be reluctant allies against an ancient power that seems likely to take their souls as well as their lives.©2023 Tim Powers (P)2023 Head of Zeus

I'm rather fussy about narrators, but this is done perfectly. Bravo Kristin Atherton!
If you like Tim Powers, you should read/listen.

There's lots of little Brontë "easter-eggs" throughout, very well researched and the fantasy elements keep you wanting to know how the author is going to weave them into the true history of the Brontës. I loved that Powers leans into the more gothic parts of the Brontë story, which I feel are usually overlooked.
It's done what the Brontë siblings loved to do and created a fantasy world that is intertwined with real history.
The narration by Kristin Atherton is brilliant! One of the best narrators I've come across on audible. Looking forward to revisiting this again!
The Brontë horror/fantasy story I've been waiting for!
