Malevolent Fairy is out today!

We Used to Live Here meets Lovely Bones in this tragic tale about a girl who is held against her will as she faces the greatest horror; a haunting by misogyny and all of its accomplices.

​WHEN ANIA WAKES UP IN A CAMP FOR TROUBLED SOULS, she has no memory of how she got there, and yet the people who surround her seem familiar. As if that wasn’t strange enough, the camp has been set up in an abandoned and derelict place.

Faced with violence from the outset, Ania tries to return home to the safety of her family, but her every effort to escape is met by a new obstacle, not least her reluctance to engage in conflict after years spent in the shadows of a wrathful mother and battle-lustful brother. A familiar voice whispers in her ear, suggesting that others are using her people-pleasing ways to manipulate her, but Ania isn’t sure if this voice is trying to help or keep her reduced to the shape of their will.

When one of the other campers goes missing, Ania fears that she is being stalked by a malevolent spirit. The forest groans, threatening to unleash something that is certain to overwhelm her if she dares to open her eyes to it. And another thing troubles her. As horrors grow and her story unfolds, she begins to question if the dangers really are out there, or if she is trapped inside the labyrinth of her mind.

Malevolent Fairy is available in paperback and ebook formats from all good book retailers.

Are you a curator of objects of grotesque beauty? Then the Tangled Knot series has been written just for you:

Malevolent Fairy: The Tale of Ania, a Troubled Soul
Rainbow Warrior: The Tale of Ares, The Battle-Lustful Son
Tangled Knot: The Tale of Eris of Suburbia is available now.

"I refuse to fall for the trap because they might catch me, these suburban witch-hunters. I have nightmares of them illuminated by a full moon, with their modern-day pitchforks of cell phones to record evidence of their preconceptions that are planted, propagated, and then confirmed by therapists and religious leaders alike. They winch me up to hang from one of their swing sets, the noose tightening around my throat as my legs thrash for life. How they will laugh and jeer and point, celebrating the exorcism of the Witch of Mount Pelion Way. How the neighbors will rejoice, and the street will be decorated with floral garlands of victory and brocades of joy woven into the finest gold and silver."

#MalevolentFairy #BBClifford

Ania is trapped in a strange but familiar place. A cabin in the woods, an abandoned space, a place where life should thrive, but everywhere she looks she finds stagnated or distorted growth. It’s as if there is not enough air to breathe, so she is slowly poisoning herself on her own vapors.

Will she ever see her family again?

Malevolent Fairy  is out now.
