And No Birds Shall Sing by E.A. ClarkMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
::..Reviewed for Red's Midnight Readers..::
I was very kindly provided with an ARC in exchange for an honest and unbiased review and I have given it 5 stars.
This is probably one of the best horror stories I have read in a long time!!
It was so incredibly creepy and atmospheric that I couldn't put it down. The author did an amazing job creating a story that sent chills down my spine from the very beginning.
The plot line was full of twists and turns, some that I saw coming and some that I did not but I still found myself enthralled and the characters were really well developed, they were so easy to relate to and I found that I couldn't help but feel scared for them as they unknowingly dealt with a malevolent spirit that sought to do their family harm.
It was chilling and scary, everything a good horror should be!

Author Bio –
Elizabeth Clark was born and raised in the Midlands, where she continues to live with her husband and son, plus an assortment of pets. Much of her formative existence was spent with her head in a book, and from an early age, she grew to relish the sheer escapism afforded by both reading and writing fiction. Putting things on hold for a time to raise her three children, she has resumed her fervent scribbling.
She has a love of antiquity and a penchant for visiting old graveyards, often speculating on the demise of those entombed beneath. Whilst she has written short stories and poetry for many years, a lifelong fascination with all things paranormal culminated in her first novel for adults, ‘Lay Me to Rest’, published in September 2017 by HQ Digital.
‘And No Birds Shall Sing’, to be published by Crooked Cat in October 2018, is her second foray into the realms of the supernatural.
