Whiteland
Description
Blending Scandinavian folklore with dark fairy tales, this creepy and atmospheric debut novel by Rosie Cranie-Higgs will take you on a psychological joyride into a terror-filled realm known only as Whiteland.

‘You’re only going to get burned.’
‘By what?’
‘Monsters,’ she calls into the night. ‘And girls who go looking for them.’

In a lonely Swiss mountain village, Kira’s holiday is interrupted when her sister Romy ventures into the woods. It’s winter, it’s eerie, and there’s something out there.

When Romy returns, she’s different, and shouldn’t have survived the elements. Even though she isn’t acting normal, all their parents care about is that she’s still alive. 

Seeking answers, Kira starts to pry. Exploring the otherworldly forest, she stumbles upon a folkloric world called Whiteland.

But secrets like to be kept. If Kira runs away, she’ll be safe. If she doesn’t, her family might not survive. In the end, there’s no mercy in revenge.

Praise
“…a truly unique dark/horror fantasy…Whiteland held me enthralled. I think this will have a broad appeal. Fantasy with a darker edge, horror, even those of us who love fairytales with teeth should find this a tense/intense reading experience.”
— Diana Stanhope, NetGalley Reviewer
“…an incredible and immensely fascinating novel that draws on Norwegian and Scandinavian folklore to create an illusory, darkly fantastical and dreamlike tale that is highly unique in its narration and genre…morbidly delightful!
— Kaitlyn Sutey, Muskoka Style Magazine
“…a spell binding adventure into a terrifying world of the supernatural. I highly recommend it!”
— Mark Erion, NetGalley Reviewer

Anyone that likes horror genre or paranormal genre or even folklore... will find this book more than satisfying.

“I really liked this book. I couldn't stop reading it.
— Ashley, Librarything Early Reviewers
“The universe Cranie-Higgs has built is original and many of the creature are thoroughly frightening. She’s used an amalgam of folk tale, fantasy, and nightmare to create Whiteland. It’s a powerful opening for readers who enjoy the genre.

“With subtle hints of Scottish wit and dry British humor, this is a book that will keep you coming back for more and make you question whether an ending is ever the end.
— A Lover of Books blog
