The Ascension of Melanie Winters Holly Pritchard

*PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED UNDER THE PSEUDONYM HOLLY STOCKPORT*

"Fast-paced, dark, gritty and fantastic."

"Pritchard excellently put together a sequence of events to first grab the reader's attention, pull them along on this rollercoaster ride of events as things seem to calm down only to get spun around again, and ending with an amazing cliff-hanger leaving the readers wanting more."

"A page turning story."

"Pritchard's novel plays out incrementally and simplistically; it has an easy flow to it, no matter the situation."

"Once I'd picked up the book I just couldn't put it down."

She was a monster. But the worst kind of monster. One disguised as a living human.

Melanie Winters is struggling with university life just as much as everyone else. Exams, lectures, the power to move thing with her mind, the usual worries.

After a freak accident that she caused, Melanie is forced to return to her home in the Welsh countryside with her mother to start again.

But when strange events begin to occur upon her arrival, Melanie begins to realise that she, and the powers she fought so hard to keep hidden all these years, might be part of something a lot more sinister.

The official debut novel from Welsh author Holly Pritchard.
