    About this ebook

     Josh Penfold knows someone is watching him, but who lurks in the shadows, across the town centre square and under the railway bridge? History repeating itself provides the trigger that draws Josh into this complex spooky mystery, emotionally linked to his past. First a mystery ghost appears to him, then a stranger haunts him night and day, but is he able to make any real sense of it? What is it that his mother and uncle know but are not telling? 

    This tale of ghost suspense finally unravels itself to reveal a mystery english to the core . . .

    Peterborough, just an ordinary city full of people like you and me, steeped in history and totally unique, but it could be anywhere, really, it could. Every city holds secrets from its past that lie dormant ready to affect the future, but what if there was more than that? What happens when something from another time rises to the surface to confront us? 

    This is the second of the spooky short stories in the ghost mystery series The Spirit of Peterborough. This gripping tale of the unexpected makes it one of those British ghost stories we can all relate to

      Smile through THE SADNESS

      Nov 26, 2020

      Driving past an old pub in a Gloucestershire village, Dad caught my eye in the rear-view mirror. ‘That’s a haunted pub, there, Becki,’ he told me. ‘Cavaliers haunt this place. It was a royalist stronghold in the civil war…’ As he talked, I listened,
