''It is almost impossible to put down'' - Lisa Tuttle, GUARDIAN ''A stonking great slice of American folk horror: modern trauma layered with ancient evil'' - DAILY MAIL The ranch was our dream home. Nestled in the arms of a valley below the Teton mountains, acres upon acres of wilderness, our nearest neighbours over a mile away . . .Beautiful, serene - isolated. Perfect. Until, naturally, the only neighbours for miles turned out to be crazy and delivered us a dire warning: The valley is cursed. Every season a spirit will manifest itself in increasingly disturbing ways, starting with an eerie light in the pond, and will kill you if you don''t light a fire and-We made them leave then. Put it to the back of our minds and went about living our new, nearly perfect, lives.Then spring came, and so did the light . . . With piercing psychological insight and a profound feeling for the natural world, Old Country unspools an unrelenting narrative of terror and suspense. ***** ''What started as the spookiest of tales on Reddit - I should know, as I love them - sparked a tour-de-force of a novel that perfectly renders the tensions of living in isolation and the unforgiving passage of the seasons'' - Thomas Olde Heuvelt, author of HEX and Echo ''Old Country ramps up our day-to-day household rituals to dizzying heights of horror. Domestic bliss has never been more terrifying'' - Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Whisper Down The Lane ''I genuinely found it very hard to put down . . . Is there such a thing as humanistic horror? If not, I think these guys might have just invented it'' - James Brogden, author of Hekla''s Children
