tricapra 's review for:

Little Eve by Catriona Ward
4.0

Catriona Ward with another book written just for me! My first exposure to her was with the excellent SUNDIAL which I read earlier this year, and this novel didn't disappoint. I understand completely how this won a Shirley Jackson award; Little Eve was a fever dream that never let up. A chilling Gothic, complete with crumbling seaside castle and unreliable narrator, I had trouble putting down my galley copy.

Full of twists and turns and a palpable sense of dread that never lets up. The setting was incredible, I felt like I could smell the ruined castle of Altnaharra and head the barking of the sea lions.

FFO gothics, psychological horror, cults
