The eerie and bizarre incidents begin as soon as fourteen-year-old Maya's family takes over the quaint old Rowen Tree Hotel. First she makes a horrific discovery in the surrounding forest. Then Maya realizes that she is being closely watched, even as she sleeps. It is all too terrifying to believe. Perhaps she's going mad and is only imagining the sounds in the night and the feeling of being stalked. Maybe she didn't see anything in the forest after all. Certainly the police and villagers think she is either lying or crazy. And there's another question: what was she doing alone in the woods in the first place? All she knows is that the mesmerizing eyes of a wild fox drew her there. Those eyes will find her again.

Time Bowler is the author of the popular Blade series for young adults, which The Horn Book called "an addictive blend of paranoia and suspense." His YA novel River Boy won the prestigious Carnegie Medal in the United Kingdom, where he lives.
An atmospheric mystery thriller with a hint of otherworldliness about it . . . As with all Tim Bowler books, this one comes highly recommended. * TheBookbag.co.uk * A dark, psychological thriller with genuine moments of chilling horror and an intriguing mystical element. * Readingzone.com * Buried Thunder is a tour de force; a compelling and clever thriller that reels in its readers from the first intriguing sentence and holds them in a vice-like grip to the heart-stopping denouement. Atmospheric, tense and bristling with menace, the brilliant plotting leaves little room for guessing and there's no chance of solving this mystery until the last page has turned. * Lancaster Evening Post * The edgy, staccato conversations that typify the novel are completely at one with its prevailing mood of menace and impending terror * The Irish Times * It's possible to be chilled to the bone without meeting any vampires. In Tim Bowler's frightening and well-paced Buried Thunder, Maya's enemy is a personal demon . . . The story is strong. * The Observer *
