Readers are saying:

Mystery. Intrigue. Dark drama. Suspense. Romance... a tight, compelling, gut-wrenching saga. - MariahMildee

The Mourning Ring is an absolute triumph - atmospheric, clever, unsettling, and utterly impossible to put down. - Willow Grimm

I'd never encountered this before: an author seamlessly blending spectral spirits of the past with modern elements. - Olivia Wright

Some secrets are buried. Some are sealed in gold. Some have waited eighty years to be found.

Author Coby McTavish brings his family to the brooding clifftop halls of Serpent's Manor for the birth of his child. He expects chaos. He gets considerably more.

A midwife who is not what she seems. A black cat that appears from nowhere and answers to no one. A booming voice inside his head that knows things it has no right to know. And on the rocks far below the cliff's edge - discovered by accident and unearthed by a drone in the hands of a teenage boy - the skeletal remains of a young woman, alongside a small ornate gilded ring that has waited in the darkness since the last year of the Second World War.

The ring carries an inscription. A date. A hidden compartment. And a message so dangerous that its owner died before she could deliver it.

As a killer stalks the manor's corridors, a detective with blue eyes and impeccable timing arrives to complicate everything, and the ghosts of Grimloch grow restless in ways that cannot be ignored, Coby is drawn into a mystery that reaches from the present back to the blackouts and betrayals of 1945 - and to a woman named Daisy, who has been trying to tell him something for a very long time.

The Mourning Ring is the fifth instalment in The McTavish Chronicles - a gothic mystery series soaked in Scottish atmosphere, dark humour, family chaos, and the persistent, unsettling sense that the dead are never quite as gone as we would like them to be.

Some rings are given in love. Some are given in warning. This one was given by a ghost.
