“I don't know. The dialogue was a bit of a challenge at times being mostly Scottish dialect. I made it through that, however the story seemed all over the place. It was interesting, but I would have liked a bit more cohesive of a story. This initially came to my attention on a list of folk horror books. I think that description was misleading. It was historical fiction in my opinion which I have been known to enjoy. It was decent, it wasn't great.”

“I listened to this book so that may be the problem I found it very hard to understand and follow.”
