The Tooth & The Face In The Fire: Two Tales of Backwoods Cabin Horror (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798241320353)

Two Haunting Tales of Backwoods Cabin Horror from the Gothic Imagination of Tania Donald...

THE TOOTH - Backwoods America, 1974
When Thomas Wiley buys a long-abandoned cabin in the hills he doesn't know a terrible secret is hidden beneath its floorboards. When lovesick young Mary Cooper lives in the same cabin in 1853 she doesn't know what dabbling in spells might unleash. And neither of them can imagine how Sarah Frost, a young woman burned for witchcraft in the same backwoods town in 1699, might infect both of their lives - or how the discovery of a single charred and axe-bitten tooth might awaken the vengeful ghosts of the past...
The past bleeds - literally - into the present, in this chilling tale of longing, witchcraft and bone shattering body-horror.

THE FACE IN THE FIRE - Outback Australia, 1853
A five year old girl talking to an imaginary friend in the fireplace seems like a harmless game. But how can the face in the fire be telling little Sunny things she couldn't possibly know? And why does it want her to set things on fire?
Stuck in a lonely and isolated cabin with her volatile father and pregnant mother- in the tinder-dry Australian outback - a family's darkest secrets are about to ignite.
A tense and claustrophobic tale bristling with the psychological horror of a family turning against itself - and isolated by something far more terrible than just distance.
What is the secret behind The Face in the Fire?
