Shelter - Softcover
Rowan Coffey, one of those hyper-smart young men who are generally too bright for their own good, is nineteen when one of his friends is murdered. Rowan, who had no alibi and was under suspicion, has been knocked off-balance by the experience and leaves university seeking the comfort and familiarity of home.
But Rowan's valley is under threat. A New Age convoy has rolled in and brought police and the potential of violence, and a water company wants to damming the river to create a reservoir which will drown Rowan's childhood. Then the promised violence erupts, and Rowan is drawn into battle by forces he never believed existed...

Review:

Brenchley is a writer who worms his way into the very heads and hearts of his characters and tells their terrible, tragic truths (Val McDermid)
I thought SHELTER was fantastic. It left me dazed and full of questions and determined to give the published book to all my friends so we can talk about what's going on! (Melanie Harris, Producer, BBC 4 Radio Drama)
An exceptional, strange and affecting psychological thriller . . . Mesmerising, lyrical and hypnotic, with a stunning climax (Sarah Broadhurst, The Bookseller)
Bewitchingly told ... This is a story to savour, with a twist in the tail that chills the very marrow (Manchester Evening News)
Brenchley grabs you by the throat...you are sucked into the claustrophobic chills of the spiralling plot...beautifully crafted (Peterborough Evening Telegraph)
A powerful writer who deserves to be much better known (Inverness Courier)
It's subtle, it's clever, it slides under your skin, but make no mistake, this novel is absolutley wicked. (Newcastle Journal)
