__________
At first the townspeople of Cherryvale welcome the arrival of medium Kate Bender and her family.
Kate's messages from the Beyond give their dreams hope, and her mother's potions cure their ills - for a price.
No one knows about their other business, the shortcut they offer to a better life. And why shouldn't Kate's family prosper? They're careful. It's only from those who are marked, those who travel alone and can easily disappear, that the Benders demand their pound of flesh.
But even a gifted seer like Kate can make a misstep.
Now as the secrets festering beneath the soil of the family orchard threaten to bring them all to ruin, the Benders must sharpen their craft - or vanish themselves . . .

Rezensionen / Stimmen
Creepy and compelling * The Times Crime Club * A mixture of black humour and psychological insight * Sunday Times, 'Best Historical Fiction Books of 2023' * Atmospheric and addictive * Crime Monthly * This sinister novel is a pulse-pounding read * Woman's Own * I was absolutely captivated by All the Blood We Share. The author brings the prairie so vividly to life that I felt I was there, living amongst brilliantly portrayed, scarily believable characters . . . Chilling, terrifying, utterly addictive, All the Blood We Share is a beautifully written, spellbinding read for 2023 -- Karen Coles, author of The Asylum As disturbing as it is compelling, All The Blood We Share is a grisly triumph, and one that cements Bruce's reputation as a must-read author * Fantasy Hive * Praise for Camilla Bruce * - * Got me out of a reading slump! Dark glee, tragedy . . . fans of my story The Corset will gobble this up * Laura Purcell * Dark, twisted and dangerously addictive * Sam Lloyd * A brutal and compelling tale that starts as a revenge story but quickly becomes so much more. Clever, shocking and horrific in places, it's the sort of book for which the phrase 'page-turner' was invented * Lucie McKnight Hardy * Come for the fabulous premise, stay for the razor-sharp portrait of a marvelously complex (and often totally terrifying) mind. I was a big fan of You Let Me In, but Camilla Bruce has absolutely outdone herself with Bella Sorensen and Triflers Need Not Apply * Laird Hunt * Explosive . . . If you like true crime, you'll devour this chilling story * Woman's Weekly * Deliciously dark, wickedly observed with a protagonist who will haunt you in the best way. Utterly gripping, chillingly compelling - you won't read another story quite like Bella's * Miranda Dickinson * Loved this fascinating tale of how a woman's pain turns to rage and then murder. A dark, thrilling ride into a world of revenge. Oh so satisfying * Julie Owen Moylan * A perfect read for any crime fiction fan. A chilling immersion into the mind of a serial killer - dark, seductive and addictive. A truly gripping read * Lia Middleton * Based on a true story, with dark humour throughout, you will be hooked * Prima * Extraordinary. Bruce does a marvellous job of reimagining this real-life murderer, without excusing her crimes * The Times * This gory fictionalisation of her story is also a great character study * Best * Explosive . . . If you like true crime, you'll devour this chilling story of revenge * Woman * Chilling. Camilla Bruce's adept reimagining of this compelling historical figure is difficult to forget * Gazette and Herald * You'll veer between pity and loathing for the main character, with perhaps a touch of horrified admiration at times * The Hunsbury Handbook *
