    About this ebook

    It may be safer for some questions to remain unanswered…

    Whilst running an errand late one Hallowe’en night, a young gentleman comes across a young lady in need of assistance. From whom or what she flees is unclear, but nevertheless he desires to help.

    When she vanishes without trace, he determines to find the reason for her disappearance, a quest which may lead him into unknown peril.

    For, amongst the shadows, there lurks something sinister…

    A gothic horror short story from the author of “The Jack O’Lantern Men” and “Whispers from the Dead of Night”.
