520 _aThe sea never forgets. The sea never forgives... Scuttler's Cove is a working village, nestling in dramatic coastal scenery in Cornwall, where life has gone on uninterrupted for centuries... until this seaside idyll was discovered by the rich. Now the quaint harbour-front cottages have been snapped up by second-homers and rental companies, and the locals can barely afford to live in their own town. It is a very different place for Merrin Moon, who left for university at the age of eighteen and never looked back. Now in her thirties, she returns to the Cove for the first time since, after the death of her mother. She soon discovers that there are forces at play in the village that she could never have imagined. Is someone trying to drive out the second homers? And has their arrival started a chain of events none of them will be able to stop? For something old and terrible is awakening beneath the town's hallowed ground. And with it comes a horror that the residents have fought for generations to keep a secret. A dark and mysterious folk horror of the sea, and a timely exploration of the displacement of our modern moment, with a twist that will leave you reeling.
520 1 _aPraise for Scuttler's Cove ‘There's a rich vein of horror to be mined here, and Barnett's doing a great job of excavating it’ SFX | ‘An eerie tale of folk horror, as old gods and locals with age-old roots come into conflict with new money and the modern world, with a satisfying supernatural showdown, and a twist you won't see coming’ Jane Johnson |‘Swarming spiders, vicious crabs, fish-headed revenants...these are terrifying enough, but they're also the least scary things in Scuttler's Cove. It's the people you have to watch out for... a brutal, brilliant novel of folk horror and dread’ Tim Lebbon
