Synopsis

The winter comes down harder than anyone living has known it, and at first the wrongness is small enough to explain away. A wood gone too quiet. A sound in the night with no source. A footprint in fresh snow that no walking thing could have left.

Ai's people know their world the way a hand knows its own fingers - the mammoth and the cave lion, the migrations, the killing cold. They tell one another it is only a rival band, driven down by the same hunger they feel. They tell one another this for as long as they can.

Because something has been watching them. Not for days - for years. It leaves no track. It answers no call. It stands at the treeline in a cold that would kill a living thing and does not feel it, and it wants nothing they have to give, because the thing it has come for is them.

They are not being hunted the way the weak of a herd are hunted. They are being known. And they are running out of ways not to understand it.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Ian Ashcroft writes gothic and cosmic horror with a literary heart. Not the kind that relies on shocks and gore, but the kind that works slowly - stories where the dread comes from what people fail to say to one another, and from the sense that something vast and patient is waiting just past the edge of understanding. He is drawn to the quiet terrors: the things left unsaid, the doors we keep shut to feel safe, the truths we save for a better morning, and the strange places love can be kept when it isn't spoken aloud.
