It's been two months since Laila was found lifeless on Kilshamble village green, not a mark on her. Rumour says she died of an overdose. Or maybe it was suicide? The autopsy found nothing, but somebody must know what happened.
Now Laila's sister Zara is ready to pick up the trail. But retracing her sister's footsteps takes her to David, a Judge at the dangerous heart of an ancient magical feud. All too unwittingly, she begins to tread the same path that led her sister to the village green.
Mary Watson's sequel to The Wren Hunt is an eerie, magical thriller about a dead girl, her sister and the boy who can unlock the truth of what happened the night she died. Perfect for fans of Frances Hardinge and Emily Bain Murphy's The Disappearances
3 Reasons You Should Read…
The Wickerlight by Mary Watson
- It was so easy to get sucked back into the world Watson created in The Wren Hunt. If you read that, you were on the edge of your seats to find out what happens next. If you didn’t, well, there’s no time like the present!
- It’s interesting to us that we get David’s POV here, and Watson absolutely surprised us with how much we came to understand where he was coming from.
- If you like fast-paced mysterious books that will keep you guessing, you’re not going to want to miss out on this series. Unless of course, you’re a giant scaredy-cat like one of us! It’s intense, ya’ll.
