Reviews

With its creeping dread and unspooling secrets, Harrow Lake feels like an Alfred Hitchcock film in YA novel form. Thrilling, terrifying and utterly compelling. Deserves to be a summer blockbuster! * Katherine Webber, author of Wing Jones * Ellis brings the claustrophobia of pulp fandom front and centre in this masterpiece of a novel * Dawn Kurtagich, author of The Dead House * Deliciously creepy * Amy McCulloch, author of Jinxed * Harrow Lake is scary, but also hugely fun . . . the claustrophobic Harrow Lake itself seems a fully realized world, a character in itself * The Bookseller * A twisted thriller with a fantastically eerie setting in which nothing is what it seems. I loved the landmarks and gruesome history of Harrow Lake. The buried secrets, landslides, jitterbugs and the Bone Tree will stay with me for a long time. Kat Ellis's monstrous Mr Jitters and the frozen-in-time movie setting makes for a chilling read that had me looking over my shoulder and holding my breath * Michelle Harrison, author of A Pinch of Magic * A taut, twisting and terrifying read that takes no prisoners as it carves and claws its way into your nightmares.
