Summary

From the critically acclaimed author of Hekla’s Children comes a dark and haunting tale of an ancient cult wreaking bloody havoc on the modern world.

Struggling with the effects of early onset dementia, Dennie Keeling now leads a quiet life. Her husband is dead, her children are grown, and her best friend, Sarah, was convicted of murdering her abusive husband. After Sarah’s tragic death in prison, Dennie has found solace in her allotment, and all she wants is to be left to tend it in peace. Life remains quiet for 12 years, until three strangers take on a nearby plot and Dennie starts to notice unnatural things. Shadowy figures prowl at night; plants flower well before their time. And then Sarah appears, bringing dire warnings and vanishing after daubing symbols on the walls in Dennie’s own blood.

Dennie soon realizes that she is face-to-face with an ancient evil - but with her dementia steadily growing worse, who is going to believe her?

This one took me a long while to get through. I kept abandoning this and listening to something else. Finally finished but can’t say I loved this one.

Not my favourite James Brogden

I was looking forward to this book after thoroughly enjoying the first two I listened to by james Brogden, but tbh I struggled to get into this story at first and I very nearly gave up on it. I persevered, and it did pick up a bit. The narration was not great. I found it slow, boring, and somewhat disjointed at times, as though the narrator was struggling to get the words out. The accents, too, were pretty bad. I sometimes struggled to know who was saying what during a conversation as they would all blend together somehow and sound the same. When Denny and David were chatting, for example, I lost track of who was meant to be speaking.

I think it would have been much more enjoyable with a different narrator.

ok

I have to say I think The Plague Stones is the best so far (I’ve also listened to Hekla’s Children).

Narration of this one is good as all of them have been. I do feel the blurb misrepresents this book though - the story entwines around itself, back and forth, but there is a whole other side to it that makes up over 50% of the story and this has no mention whatsoever. Since the book opens from this point of view, I did initially spend the first several chapters wondering if I was listening to the right book!

Lovely writing as usual, I do enjoy the flow of the words and turns of phrases used.

Still a good book, but…
