Description
Britain, 2019.
The secluded rural village of Harrowvale holds a dark past: years earlier, on a farm bordering the woods, a cult-led by the charismatic Jasper Hillman-sought to escape civilisation and find purity in the old ways, namely worshipping an ancient deity called Thistlebone. The cult's pagan beliefs grew so deranged that they kidnapped a young girl, Avril Eason, with the intention of sacrificing her. But Avril escaped... and now, so many years later, she returns to Harrowvale to face the demons of her past.
Haunting and visceral, the Complete Thistlebone collects volumes 1-3 of the acclaimed folk horror series by T.C. Eglington and Simon Davis.
