Welcome to Ynys Diawl, our beautifully isolated Welsh island. We greet visitors in a special way! What? Oh, true, the English translation is Devil Island, but that's just slander.”

“Yes, it was the perfect escape for three strangers. Each had their own reasons for visiting. We don't care why anyone comes here! Hey now, who said the locals are violent? Surly, maybe, but we love all types, here.”

“Mmm, that does look like a storm coming in. A bad 'un. No escape from the island tonight. Escape? I meant ... never mind. Come down these steps with me, I have something to show you. Don't look so worried, we don't bite!”

An atmospheric folk horror likened to The Wicker Man in Wales.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"I loved the isolated Welsh setting and atmosphere. Tension builds steadily throughout the book to a horrific and shocking ending."
--Banshee Irish Horror Blog

"Had me turning the pages at breakneck speed. It is an uncomfortable read, one that quickens the pulse and makes you keep the light on."
--Brew and Books Review

"A novel that is equal parts The Wicker Man and The Crazies. It's a brutal tale. Think of Stephen Gallagher or James Herbert, and that's the realm we dwell in, where flawed people try to make the best of a bad situation."
--Altered Instinct

"It is, in my opinion, way beyond good. The author has been likened to Richard Laymon and Dean Koontz by other reviewers and these comparisons are pretty much on the mark. This is proper horror writing, the stuff that makes you wince when you see what's coming."
--The Terror Tree

"A horror story like no other. The story is an attention-grabber right from the word go, and the more I read it, the harder it became to put down. I found myself waiting with bated breath to see what was going to happen."
--Readers' Favorite

"The Welsh setting is so lifelike and fleshed out that I could almost taste the salty air. The story was intense, dramatic, and shocking. Well-done horror is all about setting up an atmosphere of anxiety and hopelessness; TURNER smothers the reader in both in the opening chapters. It's not 'if' someone is going to die, it's 'if' someone will survive."
--Lizzy's Dark Fiction

"Glides the reader in with a creeping sense of dread of village inwardness and suspicion seen in The Wicker Man and An American Werewolf in London and pretty much every Hammer Horror film. If you enjoy a short breakneck read with a flawed hero you'll be at home on this island bound book."
--Snakebite Horror Reviews

"I was really surprised and delighted by this wee book. I read it in one night. The anticipation that something is about to go wrong and is eerie starts from the opening chapter."
--So Many Books, So Little Time
