Omschrijving

From the bestselling author of Mother Fear comes The Cove: part ghost story, part murder mystery…

Podcaster Sam Spectre agrees to stay the night at The Seacove Inn to investigate claims it's the most haunted pub in England. But what starts as a ghost-hunt soon becomes a murder mystery when someone's found dead in the cellar. With the inn sandbagged and cut off by a storm, no one can get in or out… which means the murderer is still there.

Two hundred years earlier, newly orphaned Beth Brodie arrives at the Inn to stay with her Uncle Bert, a shadowy figure who controls the local smuggling trade. Corrupted by contraband, he'll stop at nothing to protect himself.

With chapters alternating between 1825 and 2025, the events of the past send ripples across time, forming a tidal wave that turns into a tempest as we pivot from an MR James ghost story to an Agatha Christie locked-room mystery in this edge-of-your-seat thriller from the bestselling author of Mother Fear.

"A thriller complete with a car chase and a dramatic stand-off. But also a state-of-the-nation novel about truth and lies, a social commentary on the Orwellian world in which two and two do not make four." - Telegraph & Argus
