Raven's Gate- Mrs Deverill Analysis

Hello Ladies,

Your homework for today is to comment on this post with one of the responses you have put on your table linking Mrs Deverill to the supernatural genre.

If you are struggling you can focus on this section from the novel:

Mrs Deverill was a small woman, at least fifty years old, with white hair, cut short. Her skin was not yet withered but it was strangely lifeless. She had hard, ice cold eyes and cheek bones that formed two slashes across her face. It was hard to imagine her pale lips ever smiling. She was smartly dressed in a grey skirt and matching jacket with a shirt buttoned to her neck. She wore a silver necklace and, on her lapel, a silver brooch shaped like a lizard.
