For Rye by Gavin Gardiner

Renata Wakefield, a traumatised novelist on the brink of suicide, is drawn back to her childhood hometown following her mother's ritualistic murder. Before long, she becomes ensnared in the mysteries of Millbury Peak as one question lies heavy:

Who killed Sylvia Wakefield?

As the answer draws nearer, as madness continues to envelop the quaint country town, Renata will come to realise that the key to all this insanity lies with one man - the world's leading writer of horror fiction. His name is Quentin C. Rye, and he will guide her to the revelation that true madness lies within.

Discovering that the darkness of her family's history runs deeper than she ever could have imagined, Renata Wakefield's eyes will finally be opened to one single, hideous truth, which will awaken a long-dormant evil.



"This is a relentlessly bleak love letter to the horror genreNot an easy read, and certainly not for the squeamish, but a bold and memorable book, big on ideas and bursting at the seams with creativity and unpredictability.";-Richard Martin, MyIndieMuse.com;"Gardiner writes with an acid wit and an impressive grip on what it takes to horrify. FOR RYE is a full-on demonic chalice overflowing with evil deeds and mind-bending situations.";-Matt Adcock, author of Complete Darkness;"For Rye is not an easy read for anyone with mental illness, but I will tell you this: it was one of the most cathartic experiences of my life. Gavin Gardiner gave me a character that I could see myself in: she was broken, manipulated, meek. And I was rooting for her to come back strong and solve this mystery. I was ready to see her get her life back.";-Victoria Gross, FanFiAddict.com
Gardiner, Gavin: - Gavin Gardiner's lifelong love of horror didn't manifest into this novel until his early thirties. Between the completion of For Rye and its publication, he wrote a novella, several short stories, and a selection of non-fiction articles and analysis pieces. These can be found in various online publications and in print via www.gavingardinerhorror.com. Before he threw himself into the writing game, Gavin dedicated much of his teen years and twenties to the pursuit of music. Although the nightmares he's since committed to the page have garnered more attention than his songs, he hopes to one day return to music. The writing of horror, however, is here to stay. He's currently working on his second novel, Witchcraft on Rü¾˜¶˜¼cken Ridge, and has grand plans for the future of his unique brand of horror. He very much hopes you'll join him for the ride. He lives in Glasgow, Scotland with his ever-patient girlfriend and ever-demanding kitten. Connect with Gavin on the platform of your choice: linktr.ee/GGardinerHorror
