About this listen

You can't see them. But they can see you.

This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams.

Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time. Afraid and trapped among strangers, Mina is desperate for answers. Who are the watchers and why are these creatures keeping them imprisoned, keen to watch their every move?

"Dark, claustrophobic." (T. Kingfisher, author of Paladin's Grace)

Original take on traditional folklore, really kept me on the edge of my seat! One of the best audiobooks I have listened to in a long time. I have already added the author’s next title to my wish list.

Worth the listen!

A suffocatingly claustrophobic and unsettling read. This book goes beyond horror, as it is crafted beautifully and has a lovely melodic feel to it. Outstanding performance by the narrator, who created a really immersive experience. I’ll keep my light on!

Outstanding!
