The Howling Tree
Kim was never nasty.
She was kind, quiet and thoughtful. And she was certainly never malicious, jealous or vindictive.
But people change, sometimes in odd, unaccountable ways, and not always for the better.
The Kim who returned to the UK after living ten years abroad did not fit back into the society she had left. She couldn’t. She didn’t want to. She had changed.
Getting together again with her old school friend Maddie, visiting Maddie’s wonderful, historic house, and meeting her attractive family, prove unexpectedly problematic.
Kim’s jealousy, and her desire to possess what belongs to another, grow uncontrollably, and morph in no time at all into nothing short of insanity, with disastrous consequences for all concerned.
As it becomes obvious that something malign is reaching out for Kim from across the Divide, she quits the UK and travels to Nepal, obsessed by the need to find a remote village high in the Himalayas. There she makes some shocking discoveries which change everything.
But Kim can’t hide from her fate or from the malevolent being that pursues her relentlessly from beyond the grave.
The story reaches its dreadful, unforeseen conclusion as the final confrontation is played out in a forest in an isolated valley in the Everest Region of Nepal.
The Howling Tree is a supernatural thriller in which jealousy, unrequited desire and horrific vengeance combine to make this story a page turner you won’t be able to forget.
The sequel to The Howling Tree will be published at the end of the year.

About the author
Fiona Roberts
13 books26 followersI come from a family of clairvoyants and sailors, so I suppose it's no surprise that I have travelled quite a bit, nor that I now work as a Medium/psychic.
I lived 10 years in Paris early on, teaching English - enjoyed every moment of it! I began writing then.
I ran an agency promoting the work of mediums, psychics and clairvoyants when I got back to England.
In 2009 Tod (my lovely husband) and I spent 5 months in a remote village in the Himalayas of Nepal teaching English. That was an eye opening life changer!
We have been back twice, and plan to go again soon.
Tod and I have allotments and grow fruit and vegetables, and we have a flock of ex battery chickens, and a fantastic rescue dog called Buzz.
Oh, and I spend quite a lot of time writing!
