PRE-ORDER NOW! A HYPNOTIC, HORROR-TINGED THRILLER, PERFECT FOR FANS OF THE LAMB AND PINE

'Hindsight and regret would have me believe that I should have known, somehow, exactly what awaited me at Fawn House. But, really, how could I have? And how could I ever have resisted?'

Following the death of her mother, Bridget discovers a family she never knew existed – an aunt, Ada Fawn, and three cousins.

When Bridget arrives in Louisiana to live with the Fawns, they welcome her with open arms. Ada is attentive and loving. Her cousins treat her as one of their own. Bridget can’t imagine why her mother would have kept these women secret.

But as the summer months draw on, Bridget realises there are strange goings-on at Fawn House – rituals her Aunt wishes her to join that she struggles to understand.

It starts with raw meat washed down with red wine at Sunday dinner. It ends with heady trips to the woods under the full moon, hunting wild animals with bare hands and teeth…

Bridget soon learns what it really means to become a Fawn girl – but can her humanity survive it?

Praise for The Fawn Girls:

'Imagine the hungry, haunted pupils of Farnsworth Seminary in the film The Beguiled if they developed a taste for full-out, full-moon, midnight revenge, and you'll get a hint of this melancholy, macabre masterpiece. The Fawn Girls leveled me' Emily Carpenter

'A gorgeously nightmarish coming-of-age story, grounded and gruesome and deeply affecting. This one will stick with me for a long time' Jennifer Thorne
