Sam Kates crafts a haunting exploration of love, loss, and the supernatural set against the rugged backdrop of post-war Cornwall. Rather than relying on cheap shocks, the novel builds a quiet, pervasive dread as ordinary lives collide with otherworldly forces in a scarred coastal community. The atmosphere is thick with melancholy and coastal damp, cultivating a slow-burning sense of isolation that lingers long after the final page. This measured approach to supernatural horror makes it a compelling choice for readers who appreciate character-driven mysteries, historical settings, and tales where emotional ghosts prove just as terrifying as the spirits haunting the cliffs.
