    About this ebook

    London, 1897. When romance author Christopher Price is told by his publisher to write gothic horror - the most fashionable genre at the time - he reluctantly accepts and retreats to his usual country cottage to write the book.


    Henry, the caretaker of the cottage, welcomes Christopher back with open arms. While researching the old books in the house, he comes across a photograph album with pictures of Henry and his wife, Enid. But Enid is nowhere to be seen, and Henry refuses to talk about her.


    What is this dark, devilish past that he refuses to dig up?

      Hankering After Ghosts

      Dec 1, 2022

      It’s been 10 years since the publication of my book A Natural History of Ghosts (see FT296:42-45). I probably should have written more in it about the writer Charles Dickens. The truth is I’ve always had a special place in my heart for Dickens. I rea
