A novel about Johnny Ifor, a character who hadn't travelled far, but in his mind and his imagination, he goes to all sorts of situations. A dark and chilly story. This is Tristan Hughes' second novel. -- Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru
A macabre novel of obsession, haunting, and the difficult art of getting away.
Send My Cold Bones Home examines what happens when obsession becomes a form of entrapment. With a strong dose of the macabre and a fascination with haunting, the novel carries the sinister atmosphere of a ghost story without losing sight of the human absences beneath it.
Tristan Hughes probes the absence of fathers and mothers, and the desire to escape what holds a person in place. For adult readers drawn to literary fiction with ghost-story shadows, psychological unease, and questions that linger, this is a novel about the pull of the past and the uncertain possibility of getting away. What remains when the haunting is bound up with what is missing?
