“With The Balance Harrison conjures up a dark tale set in Cold War Poland, spiked with Slavic folklore and terrible sacrifice.”
A split second glance causes an accident that injures Natalia’s brother. With her relationship with her mother already in tatters, and her brother getting worse by the minute, she finds a glimmer of hope in the forest.
Whispers in secret for a way out.
But when you call on dark forces in time of need, there’s always a reckoning, a need to restore the balance.
A sacrifice must be made.

With The Balance Harrison conjures up a dark tale set in Cold War Poland, spiked with Slavic folklore and terrible sacrifice.
Why Kev’s excited about this book:
“I’m really excited about this book, first of all because it’s my first long form release, hopefully building on my two novelettes, Cinders of a Blind Man Who Could See and Warding. I’m also doubly excited because I believe that there is space in the world for more of the folklore of Slavic nations such as Poland, where my book is set, especially in the horror and dark fantasy genres.”
