“You’d be hard pressed to ever forget The Memory Tree once it takes root. This wicked tendril of folk horror reaches down deep, rummaging through the reader, making a home for itself that will last for years to come, perhaps a novel to outlive us all.”
CLAY McLEOD CHAPMAN, author of Devil Inside


“A warp and weft of folklore, fear and the power of remembrance, Davey’s latest is striking. Old things have memories too and not all are good. The Memory Tree is brilliantly Gothic, thoroughly haunting and a damn fine read.”
ANGELA “A.G.” SLATTER, multi-award-winning author of A Forest, Darkly

“A wonderful reimagining of Gothic tropes, weaving together two time periods to tell the story of a haunting stretching across centuries.”
A.C. WISE, author of Wendy, Darling and Ballad of the Bone Road
