The Divide- Stewart Giles-  Horror    

The Divide is a piece of land untouched with good reason for centuries. As it has been passed

down the proviso is that it is not to be touched. The locals know it as the Bad place. Legend

tells that The Divide is between heaven and hell and if disturbed a little girl in a white dress

and macabre form will appear. Those who see and hear her will die. Locals discover that

the latest owner is developing the land and do their best to dissuade him. Five teenagers

are on a walking holiday and become stranded when their car breaks down. They are

taken to the local inn and that's when the little girl begins to appear and things start

to get rather hair-raising. This is the horror novel I have braved(Thanks Stewart!!) and

rather glad I did. I didn;t give me nightmares but did have an eerie feel to it which I

enjoyed. Maybe I am getting braver in my old age! A good plot and likeable characters.

I won’t say too much more as I'm no horror expert , however from a avid readers

point of view this was a solid enjoyable read. Nice one.

From #1 best-selling author: Stewart Giles comes a bone-chilling horror story that

will keep you up at night. THE DIVIDE – Some things are best left buried. Five teenagers head into Dartmoor’s bleak National Park for a final adventure together before they all go their separate ways after the summer. These lifelong friends have no idea what terrible secrets this place holds. One by one they start to realise something is not quite right about this moor. Something is lurking there – some malevolent and ominously primeval force is buried deep beneath this ground waiting to emerge. The locals know the truth about what lies beneath this land but the five friends are met with a sinister silence everywhere they turn. Then the Divide is split in two. What is unleashed is hell itself and the friends know they need to find a way out before it’s too late. Lured into an ancient forest that appears on no maps, the friends’ fight for survival begins. But who is the little girl in the white dress? With her hideously disfigured face and transfixing voice, why has she suddenly taken a keen interest in these teenagers? The Divide is the chilling tale of five friends’ fight for survival against forces none of them could have imagined.

Stewart Giles – Author Bio

After reading English at 3 Universities and graduating from none of them, I set off travelling around the world with my wife, Ann, finally settling in South Africa, where we still live. In 2014 Ann dropped a rather large speaker on my head and I came up with the idea for a detective series. DS Jason Smith was born. Smith, the first in the series was finished a few months later. 3 years and 8 DS Smith books later, Joffe Books wondered if I would be interested in working with them. As a self-published author, I agreed. However, we decided on a new series - the DC Harriet Taylor: Cornwall series. The Beekeeper was published and soon hit the number one spot in Australia. The second in the series, The Perfect Murder did just as well. I continued to self-publish the Smith series and Unworthy hit the shelves in 2018 with amazing results. I therefore made the decision to self-publish The Backpacker which is book 3 in the Detective Harriet Taylor series which was published in July 2018. After The Backpacker I had an idea for a totally new start to a series – a collaboration between the Smith and Harriet thrillers and The Enigma was born. It brings together the broody, enigmatic Jason Smith and the more level-headed Harriet Taylor. Miranda is something totally different. A stand-alone psychological thriller, it is a real departure from anything else I’ve written before. This was followed by the sequel Mistress in 2019. The Detective Jason Smith series continues to grow and there are now 13 books including the introduction: Phobia. Book 12: Deadeye will be published in February 2020.
