Deloume Road

A beautifully evocative and carefully crafted novel that skilfully captures a vivid landscape while giving us a glimpse into the lives of its diverse yet complex community. Tensely atmospheric, building to a stunning and horrifying climax, this is truly a novel to savour

Waterstones Books Quarterly

A novel with real, haunting power

Guardian

An enigmatic and poetic novel

The Bookbag

Elegant... delicate meditation on the cyclical nature of history, and the strength of communities

Observer

Hooton's voice is beautifully lyrical, gentle and appreciative of nature; as the novel builds we too are drawn into this world, and the jaggedly horrifying finale. Beautifully written and highly recommended

Victoria Moore, Daily Mail

Sensuous and arresting, Hooton's writing is consistently alive with imagery
