Money's tight and their new home is a fixer-upper. Deep in rural South West England, with an ancient wood at the foot of the garden, Tom and his family are miles from anywhere and anyone familiar. His wife, Fiona, was never convinced that buying the money-pit at auction was a good idea. Not least because the previous owner committed suicide. Though no one can explain why.

Story
Derelictions are horror stories told in ways you may not have encountered before. Something is missing from the silent places and worlds inside these stories. Something has been removed, taken flight, or been destroyed. Us. Derelictions are weird tales that tell of aftermaths and of new and liminal places. Each location has witnessed catastrophe, infernal visitations, or unearthly transformations. But across these landscapes of murder, genocide and invasion, crucial evidence remains.

Welcome to Haver-Towne. The sedate colonial resort is the perfect place where Stew Fanshawe can get away from it all for a while. But instead finding tranquility and self-reflection, Stew finds something much more unique: a town that was once steeped in a quagmire of witchcraft, satanic debauchery, and centuries-old occult science. Indeed, Haver-Towne has a most colorful history: A warlock who sires children with his own daughter. A witch whose sheer diabolism staggers even the most demented. And a 300-year-old mansion in whose walls are embalmed the infernal secret of...Witch-Water.

Publisher's Summary
How far will he go to save his daughter? How far will he go to get revenge?
It's 2053 and runaway climate change has brought civilization to the brink of collapse. Billions are threatened with starvation and mankind is slowly moving north in a world stricken by war, drought and superstorms - easy prey for the pandemics that sweep across the globe. Easy prey, too, for the violent gangs and people smugglers who thrive in the crumbling world where 'King Death' reigns supreme.
The father's own world went to hell two years ago. His four-year-old daughter was snatched from his garden when he should have been watching. The moments before her disappearance play in a perpetual loop in his mind, as do nightmarish fantasies of who took her, and why. But the police are preoccupied.
Amidst the worst European heatwave on record, a refugee crisis and the coming hurricane season, who cares about one more missing child?
Now it's down to him to find her, even if it means going to the worst places imaginable, to do the unthinkable....
Adam Nevill was born in Birmingham, England, in 1969 and grew up in England and New Zealand. He is the author of the supernatural horror novels Banquet for the Damned, Apartment 16, The Ritual, Last Days, House of Small Shadows, No One Gets Out Alive and Lost Girl.
In 2012 The Ritual was the winner of The August Derleth Award for Best Horror Novel, and in 2013 Last Days won the same award. The Ritual and Last Days each won the RUSA for Best in Category: Horror.

This is an outstanding novel
It is the year 2053, climate change is wreaking havoc on the world: floods, droughts, starvation, disease, and mass migration north. The Father (we never learn his name) is living a semi-normal life in his upper middle class neighborhood in England with his wife and daughter when tragedy strikes. His four year-old daughter is abducted. The police are overwhelmed with hundreds of more serious crimes and do little to help. Driven somewhat insane with the loss and spiraling thoughts of what kind of depraved monster has taken his daughter, the Father takes matters into his own hands.
The story begins two years after the daughter’s abduction. The Father is working as a kind of free-lance interrogator with the secret help of sympathetic police officers. He crosses line after line of illegal behavior as he tortures, then kills his leads – child molesters and human traffickers. There seems to be no limit to the depravity of the men he finds. It is difficult for him to unsee their evil.
It is a dark world, spiraling quickly to a deadly end for all humanity. The backdrop of climate change and human misery keeps the mood bleak and the listener in a state of perpetual hopelessness, mirroring the Father’s own state. This well written jewel tends to dig deeply into metaphor, describing mood and events with great detail. While the story is full of action, violence and drama, it can also move slowly, methodically at times over sensations and detail. It is well worth the effort, just an observations for some impatient listeners, stay with it.
Without spoiling the plot, it is worth noting a particular character that is introduced late in the novel. This drug addled acolyte is so compelling and unusual, the listener will wish he had been brought into the story earlier. Reality itself bends around this strange person, inviting the listener to think differently about metaphysics, humanity and most interestingly – death.
The audiobook is performed by Kris Dyer, who is simply outstanding. The character voices are clearly differentiated and remarkable for their variety. Most notable are his female voices, which at times make the listener wonder if there wasn’t a second narrator. Mr. Dyer matches the dark mood of the novel in voice and inflection giving what can only be described as a near perfect performance. His is a voice worth following.
This is an outstanding novel performed exceptionally well. Its violent theme and dark mood will not appeal to every listener, however. It is about a vigilante father trying to recover his daughter or at the very least punish those who would have abused her. The attention to detail and the dire warning given in this dark novel make it well worth listening to. Highly recommended.
Warning: Scenes of extreme violence, torture and child abuse make this novel inappropriate for young listeners and others sensitive to these themes.

Interesting premise pointless monologues
Editing is a friend of the story teller. Dragging it out may be delightful for the author. But have mercy on the rest of us.
Not sure why this was set in the future or alternate world but ok. I enjoy this writer very much but here his worst traits come out. Endless soliloquies by wicked characters or descriptions of circumstances which draw out the story for no benefit. In this desperate race everyone sure has a lot of time to muse about everything under the sun to each other. I hurt about as much as the dad from enduring so much blather.

Really good narration with well executed, varied character voices. Each character was discernible without being distracting. I would definitely look for other readings by this narrator.
Excellent story. I always feel like Neville has better set up than follow through in his books, but this one was pretty consistently good throughout. A bit of a departure from horror into more of a "thriller" genre, which was a fun change to see in one of my favorite authors.

A horrifying masterpiece.
What did you like most about Lost Girl?
This was a beautifully written story about terrible personal tragedy in a collapsing world. It was horrifying and brutal, but the author painted such a vivid landscape, you felt you were on the journey as well. It was uncompromising, bleak, and raw to the bone.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Lost Girl?
When the father find Oleg Chorny, and the things he finds.
Which character – as performed by Kris Dyer – was your favourite?
Oleg Chorny. A total fruit loop.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I easily could have. It was so absorbing.
Any additional comments?
One of the finest audiobooks ive ever listened to. Kris Dyer did a fantastic job. The story was amazing.

Original storyline but slightly overwritten
I loved the near future setting and decline of a father, trying to do the right thing, turning into a monster. However there were long passages of musings and description which felt like the pace was being sacrificed for philosophy and background. For instance there is a scene in an unlit church where the protagonist looks in detail at wall paintings when a brief overview would have been more effective. Further scrutiny could have been left till later.
Saying that, the mixture of personal horror with global catastrophe was excellent. I did wish the narrator could have been a bit more neutral. He seemed to agonise over each sentence as if it was poetry, which for me lent a different voice than I would have imagined if I had read it normally.

I was really looking forward to this listen. However, after several hours I have finally decided to give it up. The long rambling 'musings' and philosophical interludes, continually interrupt the narrative pace of the book which has, I'm afraid, defeated me.

Hampered By Cliche.
Half decent premise, ruined by continual use of cliched Writing.
Eg, when taking revenge on a child molester, our hero says "This one is for the kids". Make of that what you will.
The narrator is unspeakably bad. When conveying emotion, he introduces a vibrato wobble into his voice, In case we don't realise that extreme emotion is being experienced by a character.
He makes all important points by pausing between each word.
These and other of the readers constant am-dram "acting" ticks, are lazy and amateur.
Couldn't get half way through, before admitting defeat and giving up.

Hmmm...
After reading Nevill's other books and stories this was a bit disappointing for me. It's a decent story but not what I was looking forward to.
