Because I loved The Last House on Needless Street so much, I ordered this other book by Catriona Ward. Little Eve is a very different story, set on a remote Scottish island in the 1920s it follows a mass murder of members of a cult/commune. It feels like a kind of Gothic horror/literary mystery with some magical realism thrown in. It was quite compelling and I liked it well enough – it had one or two twists which I didn’t see coming. Didn’t love it as much as Needless Street though.
