A deeply atmospheric literary horror novel about the nature of
repressed guilt, grief and fear. Daniel once had a baby brother,
but he died, a long time ago now. And he had a wife and a daughter,
but that didn't work out, so now he's alone. The easy monotony of
his job as a milkman in the remote northwest of England demands
nothing from him other than dealing with unreasonable customer
demands and the vagaries of his enigmatic boss. But things are
changing. Daniel's started having nightmares, seeing things that
can't possibly be there - like the naked, emaciated giant with a
black bag over its head which is so real he swears he could touch
it . . . if he dared. It's not just at night bad things are
happening, either, or just to him. Shaken and unnerved, he opens up
to a local witch. She can't t discern the origins of his haunting,
but she can provide him with a protective ward - a witch-bottle -
if, in return, he will deliver her products on his rounds. But not
everyone's happy to find people meddling with witch-bottles. Things
are about to get very unpleasant . . . Witch Bottle is literary
horror at its finest, perfect for fans of Andrew Michael Hurley's
The Loney and Starve Acre.
