Lola Nox is the daughter of a celebrated horror filmmaker - she thinks nothing can scare her. But when her father is brutally attacked in their New York apartment, she's swiftly packed off to live with a grandmother she's never met in Harrow Lake, the eerie town where her father's most iconic horror movie was shot.
The locals are weirdly obsessed with the film that put their town on the map - and there are strange disappearances, which the police seem determined to explain away.
And there's someone - or something- stalking Lola's every move.
The more she discovers about the town, the more terrifying it becomes. Because Lola's got secrets of her own. And if she can't find a way out of Harrow Lake, they might just be the death of her...

Recenzii
Lashings of 80s style
Harrow Lakeis a book that's hard to put down.Scary, suspenseful and deliciously twisty, it hits that 'Netflix binge' sweetspot. It's also a hugely entertaining riff on '80s and '90s horror, echoing everything fromStephen King toScream,with some neat twists on familiar tropes
This dark and twisty book will keep you gripped to the very last page and give you sleepless nights. Atmospheric and beautifully written,Harrow Lake is a five-star must-read
ScreammeetsThe Babadookin small-town USA. This book made my retro-horror-loving heart sing
What athrill-rideHarrow Lake is. If you likeStephenKing, you'd be mad not to snap this up
Ataut, twisting and terrifying readthat takes no prisoners as it carves and claws its way into your nightmares. Expect more than just jitters...
A twisted thriller with a fantastically eerie settingin which nothing is what it seems. I loved the landmarks and gruesome history of Harrow Lake. The buried secrets, landslides, jitterbugs and the Bone Tree will stay with me for a long time. Kat Ellis's monstrous Mr Jitters and the frozen-in-time movie setting makes for achilling readthat had me looking over my shoulder and holding my breath
Harrow Lakeis scary, but also hugely fun. . . the claustrophobic Harrow Lake itself seems a fully realized world, a character in itself
Deliciously creepy
Ellis brings the claustrophobia of pulp fandom front and centre in thismasterpiece of a novel
