Ava Morwood is a writer of dark, suspenseful contemporary thrillers, laden with the eeriness of folklore and the secrets buried in the British landscape. Her first novel is inspired by the peculiarity of mermaid legends being found across the landlocked Peak District, combined with echoes of the fairy tale she always loved deepest and best.
- New Reviews of Until We Drown
The Blue Book BalloonDavid at the Blue Book Balloon kindly reviewed UNTIL WE DROWN:
“Nuanced, complex horror is just what Morwood serves up with Until We Drown. It is deeply chilling, heart wrenching at times. You fear for everyone here, threatened on so many levels, and yes, you sense a wickedness at work. It’s a mark of the writing though that the precise nature of that wickedness isn’t at all clear till the very end, nor how it might be overcome… A brilliant read, one I’d strongly recommend.”

Run Along the Shelves
Another lovely review came in from Matthew at Run Along the Shelves. Here’s what he had to say:
“What impressed me though is all the elements flow together to give us something a little different… Morwood has created a modern dark fairy tale for adults. A cautionary tale where everything is never quite what it seems; that happy endings don’t always last forever and to be wary of dark pools. A great story to add a further chill on a summer night and highly recommended!”

Thank you to both reviewers!
