Books: My Gothic Novel Erosion is One Year Old

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


A year ago this month my Gothic novel, Erosion, was officially published! I’m still hugely proud of my story about a group of friends finding an ancient burial site on an eroding Kent cliff. Rather than tell the authorities, they decide to do a seance to contact the spirit of the woman they believe is buried there. It’s a magical ghost story, but it’s also about friendship over a summer by the sea.

Here’s the synopsis from my publisher Moon Books’ website:

 ”It all began when we found the bones…” This is the start of Erosion, a gothic novel set on the English coast, in 1987, the year of the Great Storm. Violent weather is but one of the problems a group of friends face when they discover an ancient grave inside a crumbling cliff and decide to unearth a skull. Supernatural mystery intertwines with the problems of human relationships, of earning money, of following dreams.

If you want a further taster, I earlier blogged with a short extract from the text. You can find it here: http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2024/04/sea-magic-extract-from-erosion-my.html

Endorsements and Reviews

I’m still very grateful to Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Rivers of London series of novels, for writing the endorsement that appears on the cover of Erosion

“An elegiac tale of memory, growth and regret set along the crumbling coast of 1980s Kent.” 

Other reviews have also been highly positive. Witch and author Ness Bosch wrote:

“Erosion is a great read. Lucya weaves a colourful story with great characters and the bittersweet emotional turmoil of the drama. Yes you need to get the bigger picture at the beginning, once you have it, it flows like water. 

“No only is it engaging but Lucya manages to transport us back in time, to younger years, to the intense emotions, the frustrations, the bravery, the fears. That is pretty good already, but on top of that is the magic inside the book, the mystery, I would say beyond Gothic. I see proper Necromancy in these pages. I even loved the name of the ghost.”
