DEADSTOCK

A young girl meets a lone woman on the outskirts of a town 

        where dark secrets are buried

When seventeen-year-old Carson meets Sally Harrow for the first time, she finds herself pulled into the gravedigger’s strange and isolated world. However, Carson’s father, Madoc, is determined to keep the two apart at all costs. The ensuing battle of wills forces all three to come face to face with a long-buried secret.
