Beneath the Watery Moon

The stunning, shocking bestseller that you won't be able to put down"One of the most extraordinary books you'll ever read." Ann Abrams "Savagely bleak Wolf Creek-style horror, unreliably narrated by a psychologically troubled young woman. The story seems to be an allegory for bipolar disorder - the highs are too good to be true and the lows are unfathomably awful. You will be unprepared. Highly recommended, if you can handle it." Oodle "I read a lot of books and have to say that this is one of the best books I've read in a long time! I was hooked from the beginning and found it hard to put the book down. A truly gripping story, which at times can be shocking." Lauren "I couldn't put it down, there were times I wanted to." Beth Boyd "Part romance - part horror, you'll want to tell your friends about it." Chris Child "A book that will hit you like a ton of bricks: shocking, romantic, disturbing, ultimately life-affirming." David Andrews "A story with a huge twist which will imprint itself on your mind."
