Little Eve has all of that plus a deliciously gothic setting!įor almost as long as she can remember, Eve has lived on the remote isle of Altnaharra. My first book by this author was Sundial, which I loved for its complicated family relationships, atmospheric setting and twists. Historical fiction is usually not my jam, but when I read the blurb and saw who it was by, I couldn’t resist taking a chance. They all want the honor, but young Eve is willing to do anything for the distinction.Ī reckoning beyond Eve’s imagination begins when Chief Inspector Black arrives to investigate a brutal murder and their sacred ceremony goes terribly wrong.Īnd soon all the secrets of Altnaharra will be uncovered. The Adder is coming and one of their number will inherit its powers. On the wind-battered isle of Altnaharra, off the wildest coast of Scotland, a clan prepares to bring about the end of the world and its imminent rebirth. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.My rating:įrom Catriona Ward, author of The Last House on Needless Street, comes the Shirley Jackson Award-winning novel Little Eve, a heart-pounding tale of faith and family, with a devastating twist I received an advance review copy of this book from NetGalley.
