"The terror is as relentless as the ballad the story springs from . . . Chilling" (Geraldine Brennan Observer)
"A fabulous revisiting of the hoariest of old chestnuts" (Daily Telegraph)
"Not for the faint-hearted, this mesmerizing tale generates goosebumps on almost every page" (Booktrust)
"A real stunner of a debut: Long Lankin is a wonderful, imaginative slow burner of a thriller . . . Lindsey Barraclough's first novel is written with a style and intelligence that would put many an adult thriller to shame" (John Millen Young Post)
"Such an impressive debut. Every element is spot on - from the elegant prose, through the realistic portrayal of various aspects of family life, the three-dimensional characters and the occasional comic set-piece, to the supernatural horror underpinning it, which is absolutely chilling. Highly recommended" (Jill Murphy The Bookbag)
LONG LANKIN
'He's here again,' she whispered.
'Who - who's here again?'
'Listen to me. He knows she's here. He will hunt for her. He will smell her out. They all hope he's gone away, but he never goes away. He just waits. He'll be looking for that little girl, then he can rest again - until the next one comes . . .'
'Who? Who are you talking about?'
'Long Lankin,' she hissed, holding my collar in her dirty, veined old hands. 'Long Lankin . . .'
Set against a backdrop of murder, witchcraft and revenge, this eerie tale of a young girl's struggle to protect her sister from a centuries-old evil is beautifully evocative and utterly spellbinding.
'I struggled to put it down . . . I hope everyone discovers Lindsey Barraclough'
