Book Description
It started as a joke: a couple of backpackers upload a YouTube video about their stay in a supposedly haunted house… But then, things turn bad. Dylan Lee, with a major in film, is documenting his backpacking holiday with his friend Amy in a series of YouTube videos. Their trip is fairly uneventful, and only a handful of friends are following their adventures… until their car breaks down and they accept an offer of a few week’s accommodation in an old gamekeeper’s cottage in the grounds of Moreton Manor. Dylan suggests that they do a tour of the decrepit old cottage and ham up the suspense for YouTube. They upload it and go to sleep…only to be woken in the night by an unearthly scream. It’s probably a fox, Amy tells viewers. But when someone spots a strange column of light picked up by the camera, their friends share the video… and it goes viral. Warnings to leave pepper the comments from locals, but others gleefully urge them to stay. As the days go on, and the ghost becomes more vengeful, Amy’s fear grows. She wants to leave, but with millions of eyes on his nightly YouTube updates, Dylan is certain that this will make his career. He’s staying, no matter what.

Five houses, haunted by shadows from the past. Unsuspecting victims, battling with events that have no rational explanation. A race against time to unravel dark secrets and confront vengeful spirits… In these five stories of haunted houses and restless ghosts, everyday heroes dig deep to find the strength and courage to face the past, for the sake of a better future. THE HAUNTING OF TRUSCOTT HOUSE A house with a dark secret. A grieving daughter determined to carry out her parents’ last wishes. A grandmother with something to hide… Chloe Thomas brushes aside her grandmother’s pleas that she stay away from Truscott House, and moves in with her friend Emily to finish the project her parents had begun before their death—the renovation of a property that had been in the family for a century. It isn’t long before Chloe has to admit that something doesn’t seem want them there—but who? Or what? And why? THE HAUNTING OF ARMITAGE HOUSE Little Isabella Burnside is fading away, and no matter how many specialists her mother takes her to, they can’t pinpoint the problem. Her twin brother, Jack—once open and gregarious—can now barely communicate. Isabella’s father, desperate to help his children, calls in Lincoln Sweeney and his partner Katie Dyer, paranormal investigators, to see if there is any basis to his children’s nightmares. Then Lincoln disappears, and his twin, Tara, knows immediately that something unspeakable has happened to him. Where is Lincoln? Is he on this plane, or the next? Has a vengeful ghost condemned him to a fate worse than death? THE HAUNTING OF WYATT HOUSE Jodie Wyatt is missing.

A grandmother with something to hide… Chloe Thomas brushes aside her grandmother’s pleas that she stay away from Truscott House, and moves in with her friend Emily to finish the project her parents had begun before their death—the renovation of a property that had been in the family for a century. Sure: she knows that the locals say it’s haunted. She brushes that aside; kids will be kids, and so-called haunted houses are practically a rite of childhood, aren’t they? But it isn’t long before Chloe has to eat her words, and admit that something doesn’t seem want them there—but who? Or what? And why? Growing increasingly afraid, she has to dig deep to find the courage to continue, with a terrified friend begging her to leave and as the truth about her grandmother’s childhood is revealed. Does she have what it takes to see this out, risking another terrible loss for her grandmother? Or is it possible to reverse the ill fortune of decades, and make Truscott House a happy home once more? She calls in the help of a ghost-hunter, and only then does she understand the strength of the unquiet spirit in her home—and that there are other innocents who have much at stake.

Little Isabella Burnside is fading away, and no matter how many specialists her mother takes her to, they can’t pinpoint the problem. Her twin brother, Jack—once open and gregarious—can now barely communicate. Nobody knows what is wrong with the Burnside twins. They keep talking about ghosts, but their mother will have none of it.

His wife Helena, intent on climbing the social ladder now that they’re in their expensive house-with-a-history, is furious: she can see her dreams dissolving before her eyes. Then disaster strikes. Lincoln disappears, and his twin, Tara, senses immediately that something unspeakable has happened to him. She races through the night to where he was last seen, and she and his partner Katie set about trying to unravel the mystery. Where is Lincoln? Is he on this plane or the next? Is it really a vengeful ghost that has enticed him to a fate worse than death—or is he really dead? Blocked at every turn by Helena Burnside, battling to find out the truth, Tara and Katie doggedly keep following the clues until they realise, with horror, just what they are facing.

The Inheritance
Author: Simon Tolkien
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 142993624X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
“Simon Tolkien’s grandfather is J. R. R., but his new novel” –a historical locked room mystery—“owes more to Agatha Christie—and Dan Brown.” (New York Times). When a famed Oxford historian is found dead in his study one night, all evidence points to his son, Stephen. About to be disinherited from the family fortune, Stephen returns to home after a long estrangement—and it happens to be the night his father is shot to death. When his fingerprints are found on the murder weapon, Stephen's guilt seems undeniable. But there were five other people in the manor house at the time, and as their stories slowly emerge—along with the revelation that the deceased man was involved in a deadly hunt for a priceless relic in Northern France at the end of World War II—the race is on to save Stephen from a death sentence. Everyone has a motive, and no one is telling the truth. Unwilling to sit by and watch the biased judge condemn Stephen to death, an aging police inspector decides to travel from England to France to find out what really happened in that small French village in 1945—and what artifact could be so valuable it would be worth killing for. “Absolutely compelling.” —Booklist, starred review “A thinking person’s Da Vinci Code.” —Chicago Tribune “A deft combination of Agatha Christie manor-house whodunit, Erle Stanley Gardner courtroom drama and Dan Brown thriller. Tolkien . . . proves himself worthy—and then some—of his literary pedigree.” —Richmond Times Dispatch
