  A love stronger than death
A mystery older than time
The ominous and melancholy ruins of an ancient abbey ... A silent, cowled spectre moving with awful majesty among the headstones ... A persistent, rhythmic, spine-chilling sound ... From the bestselling author of the award-winning True Crimecomes a reinvention of the classic ghost story.
Richard Storm is a producer of Hollywood horror films, inspired by the classic British ghost stories he has always loved. Now, with his life beginning to unravel, he has come to England on a desperate quest: to find evidence that the great old stories contain an element of truth, that the human spirit lives on after death, that in this all too-material world there still may be a reason to believe.
But his search uncovers more than he bargained for: Sophia Endering, haunted, beautiful, mysterious, as dangerous to herself as she is to those who love her. Harper Albright, eccentric, pipe-smoking editor of Bizarre! magazine, whose investigations into the paranormal disguise her deadly pursuit of an age-old evil. And Saint Iago, unspeakable, whose acts of cruelty may well transcend not only the imagination but the laws of nature.
Richard Storm's nightmares are about to step down off the screen into real life. He is about to begin a journey - down a trail formed by the classic ghost stories themselves - through his deepest passions and his darkest fears, to a secret over a thousand years old which lies at the very heart of the uncanny.
Full of gothic atmosphere and palpable tension
