'Like something from Emily Bronte's nightmares' ANDREW TAYLOR
READERS LOVE THE COFFIN PATH ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'Chilling, mysterious, unnerving and romantic'
'Ideal for dark winter nights'
'An incredible work of modern gothic'
'I didn't want it to end'
'Worthy of comparisons with Hill, King and Du Maurier... seriously'
Maybe you've heard tales about Scarcross Hall, the house on the old coffin path that winds from village to moor top.
They say there's something up here, something evil.
Mercy Booth isn't afraid. The moors are her home and lifeblood. But, beneath her certainty, small things are beginning to trouble her. Three ancient coins missing from her father's study, the shadowy figure out by the gatepost, an unshakeable sense that someone is watching.
When a stranger appears seeking work, Mercy reluctantly takes him in. As their stories entwine, this man will change everything. She just can't see it yet.
