Summary
Sara's on the run and she's found the perfect place to hide... THE CROWLANDS is the incredible new novel from rising horror star T M Creedy!
Sara Robinson – gambling addict, liar, thief – lived a hand-to-mouth existence in a dingy flat in London. Now she's running for her life after the chance to make some easy money goes horribly wrong. She has three things which might save her - a passport in someone else's name, a ticket to Australia and a suitcase full of cash. Sara finds herself the custodian of a crumbling Victorian mansion known as Crowlands House, once a children's home in the rural town of Ararat. At first, the airy property seems cool and welcoming in the harsh Australian sunlight. It's a private haven where Sara can forget about what happened in London. But there are things in the house that aren't quite right. And Sara can't ignore them forever.

I loved this story. The narrative was fresh and compelling, and although some of the plot was guessable, that didn't detract from the storytelling. Sara's flaws made her a well-rounded, believable individual. A nice touch was the arrogance of the modern day doctors mirroring that of Silas. Supporting characters were more than just incidental; larger-than-life Belle, (I have an Australian teacher-friend, who, while slim and fit, reminds me of her...) Esse, the cats... the use of the crows was very cleverly done, and the children were lovely. The acknowledgement of native lore was fascinating. The unresolved tension between Drew and Sara worked well, and I really, really, enjoyed this story.
