Publisher Review

"A ghost story guaranteed to reel you in from the first page and then give you the shivers" -- The Times Children's Book of the Week "A melancholic yet spine-tingling ghost story written with grace and poignancy. The message of togetherness within landscapes and throughout history is the most perfect one Marcus could have left for his readers." -- Keith Gray "Every now and again a book comes along that knocks me sideways. This is one of those books" -- Kate Poels, author "Complex and atmospheric ... Like all the best ghost stories, Ravencave is inextricably linked to place and people, with a raw emotional heart." -- CLPE "There is beauty in the emptiness of the landscape, a quietness that builds to melancholy as the story progresses ... a story of love and loss, both physical and emotional." -- Libraries 4 Schools
