Devilishy deliciously creepily good. I didn't sleep for a while after this. Children being buried alive, spending time with them in the coffins, feeling their pain, fear, wondering what is going to happen next...

There's some sick twisted people in this story but there's an author who puts them in a giant pot, stirs them up and picks them out even more deviously devious than before! There's also a story behind this story, alluded to in the author note - why she wanted to write a book which alludes to and examines the Pendle Witches

Sharon Bolton what are you doing to me? CRAFTING a very very fine story that's what!
