Crone - Paperback

by Jeannie Wycherley (Author)

A twisted tale of murder, magic and salvation.
Heather Keynes' teenage son died in a tragic car accident.
Or so she thinks.
However, deep in the countryside, an ancient evil has awoken ... intent on hunting local residents.
No-one is safe.
When Heather takes a closer look at a series of coincidental deaths, she is drawn reluctantly into the company of an odd group of elderly Guardians. Who are they, and what is their connection to the Great Oak?
Why do they believe only Heather can put an end to centuries of horror?
Most important of all, who is the mysterious old woman in the forest and what is it that feeds her anger?
When Heather determines the true cause of her son's death, she is hell-bent on vengeance.
Determined to halt the march of the Crone once and for all, hatred becomes Heather's ultimate weapon and furies collide to devastating effect.
Get Crone now.
