Wolf Hollow

Harper Lee has a worthy successor. Wolk is a big new talent - The Times

Annabelle has lived in Wolf Hollow all her life: a quiet place, still scarred by two world wars. But when cruel, manipulative Betty arrives in town, Annabelle's calm world is shattered, along with everything she's ever known about right and wrong.

When Betty disappears, suspicion falls on strange, gentle loner Toby. As Wolf Hollow turns against him, and tensions quickly mount, Annabelle must do everything in her power to protect Toby - and to find Betty, before it is too late.

Powerful, poignant and lyrical, Wolf Hollow is an unforgettable story.

Reviews

  • Harper Lee has a worthy successor. Wolk is a big new talent

    The Times

  • Weaving together complex themes with extraordinary skill, debut author Lauren Wolk has created a book that deserves to be read . . . A timeless story, beautifully placed in an evocative and brilliantly realised historical setting

    Guardian

  • Suspenseful, wise, beautifully written and emotionally engaging

    Sunday Times

  • Haunting . . . With a precociously perceptive girl as a main character; a damaged, misunderstood recluse; and themes of prejudice and bigotry, comparisons to Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird will abound. But Wolk gives us her own story - one full of grace and stark, ­brutal beauty

    New York Times

  • A powerful, beautifully written coming-of-age novel . . . This emotionally intelligent, complex story deserves recognition and praise
