A soldier trapped by a predatory host on Bodmin Moor.
The narrative centers on Connor, a Special Forces operative stranded on Bodmin Moor during training. He accepts help from Eilidh, whose hospitality masks a sinister purpose. Connel constructs a claustrophobic atmosphere where the warmth of the farmhouse contrasts with the lethal intent of its owner. The story explores themes of predation and survival, positioning Connor as the latest in a long line of victims. The tension arises from his realization that his military skills offer no protection against this specific kind of threat.
The novel is published by Wildfire in 2023. It engages with the British gothic tradition of horror set in remote landscapes. The setting of Bodmin Moor provides a specific cultural and geographical context for the supernatural elements, grounding the fear in a real, desolate location rather than a generic haunted house.

⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Connel effectively constructs a claustrophobic atmosphere where warmth masks lethal intent. The contrast between military discipline and primal fear drives the narrative tension. By positioning Connor as prey despite his elite training, the author subverts typical thriller expectations. The isolation of Bodmin Moor serves as a potent backdrop for this exploration of predation. While action-oriented readers might find the pace slow, fans of psychological entrapment will appreciate the growing dread. The book succeeds in making the farmhouse feel like an inescapable trap through its careful pacing and thematic focus on vulnerability.
