'A gripping tale of dark faerie magic' - Phil Hickes, author of The Haunting of Aveline Jones

Pippa can't wait to visit her grandfather's cottage in the forest, even though the last visit ended when she saw a strange figure at her window in the middle of the night.

Soon her Cornish holiday turns into a dark and wild adventure when Pippa realises that someone - or someone - is lurking in the trees. Watching. Waiting.

Who is hiding in the woods? Why are twig figures appearing all over the cottage? And what secrets are lingering in Whispering Hollow?

A gripping tale of dark faerie magic -- Phil Hickes, author of The Haunting of Aveline Jones
Whispering Hollow is the perfect book for snuggling down under a blanket on a cool autumn evening while the wind whistles through the trees.
Such a brilliant story, eerie and atmospheric and full of adventure! I am new to reading middle grade fiction but I'm loving how magical it is... this is definitely one of my favourites! -- Soph’s Book Club * NetGalley *
When I think about how many Neolithic stones with holes in that I've dabbled in and through over the course of my life so far then it's a wonder that I'm alive but I will think twice about even touching one again after reading this book! Genuinely terrifying fairy/horror story that will stay with me for a long time. Beautifully written and memorable characters (both heroes and monsters). Very highly recommended for those not of a nervous disposition! -- Jenny Jones (Librarian) * NetGalley *
This is a perfect read for middle grade readers (and adults obvs) who love a bit of a creepy story. Full of folklore and an interesting sibling dynamic, this story is simply wonderful. * NetGalley *
