The Dark Between The Trees
by Fiona Barnett
** Thanks to NetGalley, Fiona Barnett, and Rebellion for this ARC **
The Dark Between the Trees by Fiona Barnett will be out October 2022.
The Dark Between The Trees is told from multiple perspectives. A group of academics, map makers, and park rangers are entering the Moresby Wood, an area of England that the locals believe is haunted by The Corrigal, a creature that kills anyone who enters the woods. The lead researcher, Alice, is interested in solving the mystery of what happened in 1643, when a group of soldiers entered the woods, were ambushed, and then disappeared. Only two survived, and they reported to the local priest a story of The Corrigal and of trees disappearing and reappearing. This mystery has become her professional and personal obsession and she finally has a chance to solve it.
This book was really promising! It was atmospheric, supernatural, and horror-light. At times I thought I would be rating it 4 stars. Unfortunately, the ending really didn't do it for me. There were a lot of unexplained loose ends and I disliked that very little was ever resolved. When the book ended, I had a lot of questions, and not in a good way.
2 stars - it was okay
