'This author has a gift for weaving the ordinary into the uncanny, blending psychological insight with an unsettling gothic atmosphere, elegant prose and masterful pacing.' Woman's Weekly
This gothic thriller delivers a masterclass in terror and suspense.
Newlyweds Hugh and Lucy become property guardians of 'haunted' Rook House in rural Yorkshire, unfazed by local claims about its past. As Hugh puts it: 'What old house standing alone in the countryside doesn't have stories attached to it?'
The young couple regard the house as a haven to rekindle their creative sparks in beautiful, tranquil surroundings.
But it soon becomes clear that someone - or something - in Rook House has been waiting for its latest occupants... waiting to unfold a story that's been whispered down the years but gone unheard. Now a malevolent force awakens, exploiting the hidden darkness in two people who barely know themselves - let alone each other.
Rook House has a story to tell. And if you listen too closely, you'll end up joining the ones who never left.
I was an avid reader long before I wrote a word. Then I became a journalist and gradually moved from writing features to writing fiction! Now I've written several novels and had more than 3,000 short stories and serials published in magazines worldwide. Perhaps because I spent my early childhood in a remote manor house in rural Ireland, I've long had a fascination with grippingly dark gothic tales. A few years ago, I gained an MSc in Creative Writing for Therapeutic Purposes. I think that my experience facilitating workshops in this area has helped to make my fiction as human as it is haunting. My writing has been broadcast on radio, adapted for audio downloads and has won or been shortlisted in writing competitions.
