Where ghosts tread, black feathers fall . . .
When Annie marries widower Edward Stonehouse and arrives at Guardbridge, his estate on the Yorkshire moors, she thinks she has finally put darkness behind her.
She is mistaken . . .
Edward''s sister, Iris, still lives in the family home. A taxidermist and medium, she urges Annie to watch out for black feathers - claiming that they mark the spot where a spirt has visited.
At first, Annie dismisses her warnings. But, before long, an eerie almost haunting feeling takes over her.
What exactly happened to Edward''s first wife? Why is Iris so disturbed?
And shoul

A chilling and atmospheric tale…you are drawn into a haunting mystery that will keep you guessing * Yours *
The Black Feathers has everything you could want in a Gothic novel, underpinned by a thrilling sense of menace. Reminiscent of Jane Eyre and The Silent Companions, the wild setting of the windswept Northern moors was a perfect backdrop for the rising tensions within Guardbridge, a grand old house in the finest tradition of English Gothic, keeping all sorts of secrets. Spooky, twisty, with a surprisingly emotional pay off, The Black Feathers is a wonderful way to spend a dark autumn evening -- KATE COLLINS
Chilling, haunting and incredibly moving -- BARBARA COPPERTHWAITE

The 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. -- IRIS COSTELLO
