Description
Lizzie Higgs is gone, burned to death on her own hearth - but was she really a changeling? Albie Mirralls met his cousin only once, in 1851, within the grand glass arches of the Crystal Palace. Unable to countenance the rumours that surround her murder, he travels to Halfoak, a village steeped in superstition. Albie begins to look into Lizzie's death, but in this place where the 'Hidden People' supposedly roam, answers are slippery and further tragedy is just a step away.

Professional reviews
"The bestselling author of the Richard & Judy Book Club hit, The Cold Season, returns with a chilling mystery - where superstition and myth bleed into real life with tragic consequences. "Trails of corpses, not bread crumbs, lead to terror in this captivating, psychologically complex hybrid of magical realism and police procedural. […]A self-referential thriller that questions our values and the stories that define us." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, on Path of Needles. "[A Cold Season] builds a real sense of foreboding and dread, which creates a chilling reading experience for fans of demonic and religious horror." LIBRARY JOURNAL, on A Cold Season."
