Bessie Bell and the Goblin King (Ebook)

Bessie Bell has just been thrown out into the cold with nowhere to go — and about to find out the night has far stranger dangers in store than she ever imagined.

Bessie’s no stranger to hard work or hard luck; a housemaid with a sharp tongue and a merciless employer learns to expect little else. But being turned out on a freezing October night, with nowhere to sleep and no one to help her, is a new low even by her standards.

On the road, her luck takes the strangest turn of all: a mysterious gentleman, Mr. Green, who’s hunting something far worse than she is. The nightmare horse Tatterfoal stalks these fog-drenched Wolds, and Mr. Green means to catch him — pulling Bessie into a wild adventure that carries her clean out of England and into the Goblinlands of Aylfenhame. There, the greatest danger of all may be the one closest behind her: Tatterfoal answers to no one but his master, the Goblin King himself.

An ordinary housemaid is about to find out just how far stout-heartedness can carry her.

A darkly delicious tale of love, magic, and fairytale adventure.
