A wonderfully evocative ghost story in the great tradition of M. R. James and Daphne Du Maurier with a contemporary edge.After the sudden death of his twin sister- 14 year old James Reynolds becomes obsessed with her tale of a black hound- a folkloric creature that is regarded as a portent of death. Enlisting the aid of his elderly neighbour- who the local children call ‘The Witch’- he delves into the centuries of village history- folklore- and ghosts- until he uncovers a deeper secret beyond his darkest nightmares- beyond the sight of most- and beyond the mortal veil.Set in the South Downs of England- a place that has been home to Celts- Romans- and Vikings- James’s story is interwoven with tales from his village that also blur the line between the living and the dead.
