Deliciously sinister, mesmerising YA folk horror at its best in this stunning new novel by Melinda Salisbury.

Shunned and living in an isolated wood, Sylvie comes across a scrawny, wasted monster named Illican: a local legend, a god made flesh.

With their destinies entwined, Sylvie sees an opportunity for redemption, but the woods are watching and nothing goes as planned . . .
