Stephen King meets Winnie the Pooh. The Chronicles of Narnia crossed with Lucy Foley's The Midnight Feast. An utterly original horror novel and international bestseller.

Everyone has wanted their favourite book to be real, if only for a moment.

Everyone has wished to meet their favourite characters, if only for a day.

But be careful in that wish, for even a history laid in ink can be repaid in flesh and blood, and reality is far deadlier than fiction... especially on Addington Isle.

Eamon and his two closest friends, Caroline and Mark, journey to the place that inspired their beloved book, Winterset Hollow—a timeless tale about a tribe of animals preparing for their yearly end-of-summer festival.

But after a series of shocking discoveries, they find that much of what the world believes to be fiction is actually fact, and that the truth behind their beloved story is darker and more dangerous than they ever imagined.

It's Barley Day... and you're invited to the hunt.

About the Author

Jonathan Edward Durham was born near Philadelphia. After attending the College of William & Mary, where he received a degree in neuroscience, Jonathan waded into the professional world before deciding he was better suited for more artistic pursuits. He now lives in California where he writes to bring a unique voice to the space between the timeless wonder of his favourite childhood stories and the pop sensibilities of his adolescent literary indulgences.
