The Birth of Ida

‘You believe in ghost stories? You afraid of ghosts when there’s snakes and men tryin’ to kill you?’ Ousted from her homestead, Ida Vale quickly learns that the only way to survive as a lone traveller is to disguise herself as a man. Unsuspecting farmer Colt is the perfect target, who just happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, looking roughly the right size. On the run as ‘Colton John’ the bounty hunter, Ida ventures into the unforgiving wilderness of The Nameless Stretch. Drawn towards a witch’s house by the whisperings of the Derelict Woods, she discovers that the land is cursed: here, the murdered return to haunt their assailants. And to her shock, Ida is being haunted by someone she loves. She’s not a murderer, like her brother. So who is it watching her every move? Meanwhile, Colt sets into motion a series of events that he hopes will end in one of two ways: Ida Vale at his door, dead or alive. But in The Nameless Stretch, you can’t escape your demons — and Ida soon learns she has far more to fear from the living than the dead. – ASIN: 1907954899 | ISBN13: 9781907954894 | ISBN-13: 978-1907954894
