I love origin stories but horror origin stories? I was sold from the get go . this book is probably scarier than any book I've ever read... Give it a read, if you dare. -- Zoe Collins * author of No Safer Place * You don't need to have read Frozen Charlotte to enjoy this book (though I definitely recommend you read both!) This is a chilling prequel that captures the menace and dread of the first book while giving you an insight of how it all started. This is the perfect eerie read that you'll want to stay up all night to finish. -- Maia and a Little Moore * author of The Thirteen Treasures * The revelation of how the evil little Frozen Charlotte dolls came to have their power is unsettling and chilling, and reading parts of this late at night in a quiet house I . admit to looking over my shoulder more than once!. I'd love to see more historical type novels from Alex Bell in future, and eagerly await her next offering. -- Michelle Harrison * The Bookbag * This second installment sees us back in 1910, so that we can investigate the origin story of these murderous dolls. And it's as brilliant at stomach-churning high horror as the first. Perhaps it's even better. Definitely one for fans of horror everywhere. -- Jill Murphy * Crack Your Spines * Creepy dolls, ghost children and needles in eyeballs, what else would you want from a horror novel? -- Bernadette Donnelly * NetGalley *
