Description
When Michael's parents die, he is invited to stay with his guardian in a desolate country house. When Michael spots a woman out in the frozen mists on the day he arrives, he suspects something is not quite right. But little can prepare him for the solitude of the house itself. His guardian is rarely seen, and there's a malevolent force lurking in an old hallway mirror. Michael soon realises that the house and its grounds harbour many secrets, both dead and alive.

Chris Priestley has crafted a book that is impossible to put down, and definitely left me wanting more. This book should appeal to reluctant readers with its fast-paced fear factor with a literary touch that just grabs you and won't let go

Priestley delivers horror like no other. For the true fan of scary stories, this is an amazing read, reminiscent of horror greats such as Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes

An enjoyable collection with enough creepy atmosphere (and some gruesome action) to hold readers' attention
