Next month sees a new edition of Lisa
Tuttle’s The Silver Bough (Jo
Fletcher Books £14.99) – originally published in 2006 in the USA.
“Appleton is a small town nestled on the
coast of Scotland. Though it was once famous for the apples it produced, these
days it’s a shadow of its former self. But in a hidden orchard a golden apple
dangles from a silver bough, an apple believed lost for ever. The apple is part

granted. Now, as the town teeters on the edge of decline, the old rituals have
been forgotten and the mists are rolling in. And in the mist, something is
stirring…”
