Summary

This eerie tale sees a group of men haunted by one traumatic event from their childhood. They thought they'd moved on ... but someone - or something - won't let them!

1988

Thirteen-year-old Andy Miller and his friends — Carl, Brian, Johnny and Gavin — become witnesses to the vicious attack of their classmate, Poppy, and the brutal murder of her sister at a flooded railway line they call the frog ponds. They lead the police to a suspect, a vulnerable older boy whose differences single him out. But when he commits suicide, his guilt is never proven. And the crime goes unpunished, until ...

Now

Carl’s body is found beside the same body of water — and the lives of the four remaining friends start to unravel. Is the hag-like woman terrorizing their every waking moment really a grown-up Poppy hellbent on revenge? Or something else ... something steeped in childhood nightmares? Something determined to reveal the truth and punish the wicked.

Conclusion

For those who love spooky fairy tales with a twist - this first in a new series will not disappoint!
