“Bloodstone is an epic horror romp, complete with dusty old manor houses and grotesque family histories. More than being a well-organized genre story that checks all the right boxes, though, Kenyon’s debut novel is also a festival of fright…the result is eerie, poignant, and ultimately wrenching. Well-paced but never too obvious — the twists blindside you with jarring force — Bloodstone is a well-told tale that would bring a chill around even the brightest campfire. Kenyon explores humanity’s emotional shadows with delicacy and intensity in a book that is as accessible as an old-fashioned horror movie, but as nuanced as a novel ought to be.”
