THE CROW STONES: AN EXCERPT

Set in 1985, in the English Countryside, my Low Fantasy, New Adult Gothic Romance, tells the story of two sisters.

Lydia & Callie Leonard.

One dead.

One alive.

Here is an excerpt from the opening pages of The Crow Stones.

Black wings break the mist.

Tendrils of the dark miasma choke me to silence as I face my reckoning.

Corvus corone, the Carrion Crow, settles upon the bold, black rock not five metres away.

The legend of Reaper’s Rock has long been knitted into the fabric of village folklore. A reaping stone of obsidian, where the church once saw it fit to behead young women who survived drowning in Butcher’s Brook.

I fear my own neck will one day rest upon it…

Further omens confirm my suspicions as black rain sheets down upon me.

The Crow Stones – coming soon – summer 2025.
