Fans of psychological thrillers and gothic-noir, look no further than Girl on a Swing, by D. B. Wright, an intense and horrifying account of a young girls victimization at the hands of her family.

What would you do if you found yourself at the mercy of abusive parents in a remote country home, trying to protect yourself and your baby brother from their violence and depravity? Girl on a swing explores the grim reality of such abuse, and the story of a young girl desperately trying to survive.

An unnerving climb inside the perpetuated horror of familial abuse. From the deep graft of a survivor, this unsettling novella explores what happens to generations caught within a cycle of violence. How love and hate work side-by-side in unhealthy relationships and what sadism can do to a child. With a vivid setting of shocking reality juxtaposed with phantasmagoric escapism through the eyes of a child, Girl on a Swing is a psychological thriller with the fast pulse of a fleeing rabbit, and the intelligence of a pursuing hawk.

Disturbing, essential and eye-opening, this gothicesque horror will get under your skin and stay there. Think of all that sinister fiction you devoured and loved? Girl on a Swing packs the same intense punch. A blend of violence and abuse, a strong protagonist who we root for throughout, with a creepy gothic atmosphere. It's not hard to see why this novella will keep you burning the midnight oil.
