    About this audiobook

    The Haunting of Briarwych Church is a horror story about a dead woman's anger, and about a terrible quest for revenge.
    The year is 1942. Britain is in the grip of the Second World War, bringing blackout conditions to much of the country. For several years, Briarwych Church has remained locked and unused. Arriving to take up his new position, Father Lionel Loveford's first task is to open the great wooden door and get the church back into use. But something lurks in the shadows. A terrible tragedy once took place in Briarwych, and now the locals live in fear of a vengeful spirit that has sometimes been spotted looking out from the church's windows. Although he doesn't believe in ghosts, Father Loveford soon discovers that the entire village of Blackwych lives in a perpetual state of guilt and terror. Does the ghost of Judith Prendergast really haunt the church and, if so, what does she want from the villagers?

      A simple tale of human malice and spectular vengeance. Done before but this one flowed easily but with no real substance to really drag you in. There was just enough to keep me involved but not enough for me to be anchored into the story. I wished there was more action, more vivid depictions or more horror to really set off the story but the writing was a glancing blow that never really brought out any real character development, visualalty or excitement. The narrator offered no real drama to the audio portion, which didn't help. All in all just an average story, sadly nothing special.
