Hydra by Matt Wesolowski
Before Scarclaw Fell, there was HYDRA... Another episode in the Serial-style SIX STORIES series, as Scott King investigates the `Macleod Massacre', in which Arla Macleod bludgeons her own family to death.
`A complex and subtle mystery, unfolding like dark origami to reveal the black heart inside' Michael Marshall Smith * `Wonderfully horrifying.. the suspense crackles' James Oswald * `Original, inventive and brilliantly clever' Fiona Cummins * `The literary equivalent of dark metal - gritty, dark, often shocking, and always exciting. A masterful debut' Kati Hiekkapelto * `Wonderfully atmospheric. Matt Wesolowski is a skilled storyteller with a unique voice. Definitely one to watch' Mari Hannah * `A tight, claustrophobic mystery' David F. Ross * `A remarkable debut from a fine new fictional voice. Written as a series of six podcasts, which attempt to uncover the truth about the death of young Tom Jeffries, this compelling narrative pulls you in from the start and keeps you in its grip to the bitter twisted end. A great book!' Shelley Day * `A stunning piece of writing - chock full of atmosphere, human insight and beautiful writing. Take a note of this guy's name. He's going to be huge!' Michael J. Malone
