An atmospheric,eerie read,perfect for autumnChilling,haunting and incredibly movingThe perfect book for a cold winter's night...an immersive gothic tale,dark and mysterious,in which it seems one must fear the living as much as the dead. Truly haunting!Looking for an atmospheric read to while away the autumn nights Set in a big house on the Yorkshire Moors,this Gothic ghost story delivers intrigue and suspense in spadesThe Black Feathers is such a glorious autumnal read. With echoes of Wuthering Heights and Rebecca,it is both a spine-tingling ghost story and a powerful meditation on grief. A beautifully written tale that gripped me from the very first page.
