Description
Kestrel awakes in the woods without a real name or his memories. Before him are twelve strangers, an altar on fire, and bones hanging from the trees like wind chimes. He’s to be initiated into their group so they may fulfill their purpose: head to the mountain of the so-called gods, have a feast, and bring about the end of the world. Kestrel is willing to risk it all to escape, but without any memories, he knows he must play along until he finds a way out.
It won’t be easy. Winter is on their heels, hunters are searching for them, and the strange rituals they perform will rip his humanity from his flesh. But Kestrel isn’t alone. One of the strangers claims to be his friend from before, and there are others willing to join his side and leave the wilderness... if the gods let them.

I knew I was going to love this before I even opened it up but WOW! This was an amazing debut novel. The writing is so deliciously beautiful and the plot was addictive. This is exactly what I needed to get through the Yellowkackets off season

I was drawn in by the cover and the content did not disappoint! I had been craving something dark and twisted to start my October off with, and Hinterland was the perfect choice. The prose is written in such a lyrical way even when it is describing something absolutely horrific. I was drawn into the mystery of the story trying to piece together the plot along side Kestrel. I had a horrific love for the characters especially Cotton Tail. There were many moments where I felt I'll but could not look way; absolutely perfect for a horror work.
That ending? I didn't see it coming.
