“You should pay your respects to Jenny.” On a quiet road in the Scottish Highlands, Dennis Norris stops to use the bathroom in a quaint country inn. It’s been a long weekend, and all he wants is to use the facilities before continuing the five-hour drive home to his loving wife. But something seems off in The Rockarn Inn. The people there won’t let him leave. Why is everyone so hostile towards him? What strange ritual has Dennis accidentally stumbled into? And just who is the mysterious Hard Luck Jenny everyone keeps talking about? Soon, Dennis will find out. And the grim events of that long, desperate night will change his life… forever. From David Sodergren, author of The Haar and Maggie’s Grave, comes a darkly comic anxiety-drenched folk-horror nightmare. Hard Luck Jenny. Love her. Worship her. Die for her.

David Sodergren lives in Scotland with his wife Heather and his best friend, Boris the Pug. Growing up, he was the kind of kid who collected rubber skeletons and lived for horror movies. Not much has changed since then. Since the publication of his first novel, The Forgotten Island, he has written and published a further eight novels, including the gore-soaked folk-horror Maggie's Grave and the romantic and disturbing The Haar. You can follow David on Twitter and Instagram. Praise for his books - THE FORGOTTEN ISLAND “A blood-drenched love letter to Lovecraft, handled with impressive authority and confidence."
James Fahy, author of The Changeling series NIGHT SHOOT "Night Shoot is wildly entertaining. If you’re not laughing, you’re scared out of your mind.” Sadie Hartmann, Mother Horror DEAD GIRL BLUES “It takes guts to write a book like this and nail it in the way Sodergren does.” Matt Redmon, Night Worms
