Fiction Family Life
The Fletchers' beautiful new house is everything they
dreamed it would be. Built between two churches in
Heptonclough, a small village on the moors that time forgot,
it ought to be paradise for this young family of five, but
they barely have a chance to settle in before they find that
they’re anything but welcome. Someone seems to be trying to
drive them away--at first with silly pranks but then with
threats that become increasingly dangerous, especially to
the oldest child, ten-year-old Tom Fletcher, who begins to
believe that someone is always watching him. The adults in Tom’s life are trying to help, including his
parents; the vicar next door, younger and more dashing than
you’d expect a vicar to be; and a therapist, Evi Oliver, who
believes him more than she wants to. But there are other
clues that something isn’t quite right in Heptonclough,
including the mysterious accidental deaths of three toddlers
over the last ten years. It is not until Tom’s siblings,
two-year-old Milly and five-year-old Joe Fletcher, go
missing in turn that the little village’s evil secret turns
the Fletchers’ dreams into a nightmare. With Sacrifice, Awakening, and now Blood Harvest, S. J.
Bolton displays time and time again her remarkable talent as
a beguiling storyteller, a master of thrills, and the
mistress of her own brand of modern Gothic tale.
