And the Trees Crept In
Autor Dawn Kurtagichen Paperback – 28 aug 2017 – vârsta de la 15 ani
When
Silla
and
Nori
arrive
at
their
aunt's
home,
it's
immediately
clear
that
the
"blood
manor"
is
cursed.
The
creaking
of
the
house
and
the
stillness
of
the
woods
surrounding
them
would
be
enough
of
a
sign,
but
there
are
secrets
too--the
questions
that
Silla
can't
ignore:
Who
is
the
beautiful
boy
that's
appeared
from
the
woods?
Who
is
the
man
that
her
little
sister
sees,
but
no
one
else?
And
why
does
it
seem
that,
ever
since
they
arrived,
the
trees
have
been
creeping
closer?
In
the
end,
Silla
discovers
that
she,
Nori,
and
her
aunt
have
already
died,
and
are
trapped
in
purgatory,
reliving
their
own
lives
since
Silla
first
arrived,
in
an
endless
cycle.
The
man
with
no
eyes
is
a
construction
of
Silla's,
formed
from
her
own
rage.
The
beautiful
boy
from
the
woods,
who
was
once
the
love
of
her
life,
has
attempted
to
save
Silla
time
and
again.
Filled
with
just
as
many
twists
and
turns
asThe
Dead
House,
and
with
achingly
beautiful,
chilling
language
that
delivers
haunting
scenes,
AND
THE
TREES
CREPT
IN
is
the
perfect
follow-up
novel
for
master
horror
writer
Dawn
Kurtagich.

Praise forThe Dead House:
"The Dead Houseis a seamless blend of the supernatural and the psychological. Creepy, compelling, andcompulsivelyreadable."—Victoria Schwab, author of The Archived and Vicious
"Full of twists, buried secrets, and enough disturbing corpses to please the most discerning horror lover,The Dead Houseis a thoroughly engrossing read.

"Told through a retrospective collection of found evidence surrounding the deaths of several students in a boarding school fire, Kurtagich's debut novel is deeply disturbing and fraught with emotion."—Publishers Weekly
"Kurtagich maintains the creepy and dark tone through to the end, where readers are not given a neat, tidy ending--the ghosts still haunt, pieces of the story remain missing, and life goes on despite the terrible tragedy at the prestigious Elmbridge High School."—VOYA
*
"Kurtagich's
horror
imagery
is
satisfying
and
affecting--her
descriptions
of
the
day-to-day
decay
the
girls
face
are
as
rich
and
scary
as
the
monstrous
man
who
scuttles
around
on
all
fours
and
the
teeming
mud
pits
that
are
waiting
in
the
woods.
A
great
next
read
for
teens
who
enjoy
being
scared."
