Prepare to be transported into the looming Welsh mountains with this major new literary voice. Liam Higginson, who was born and raised in rural North Wales, speaks to award-winning writer Claire Fuller about his debut novel The Hill in the Dark Grove.
Embedded in Welsh folklore, the book tells the story of Carwyn and Rhian, the last in a long family line of sheep farmers. When Carwyn stumbles across a stone circle and some sort of burial mound in one of the fields on their land, he quickly develops an obsession, while his wife, Rhian, is confronted with the growing realisation that the man with whom she shares her life and home is slowly becoming a frightening stranger.
