Blackwood is a graphic novel mystery set in the small town of Hundersby, where two murders happen, many years apart. Peg, and her great-grandson, Mason, hold clues to the town's secrets, but does anyone want to know?
Set in 1993 London, the story follows Fran, an amateur cryptozoologist navigating a world where the line between reality and imagination blurs. As she embarks on a journey filled with tales of mythical creatures, Fran grapples with personal loss, exploring her grief over her mother's death while interacting with her estranged father, disconnected Nana, and a selfish boyfriend. Accompanied by her best friend Alex, the narrative unfolds as a picaresque graphic novel that intricately weaves together themes of family, loss, and the fantastical.
