A broken church window, smashed in a bid to contain the power trapped within its stained glass...
The desperate sobbing of a child who isn't there...
When restoration expert Kit Farris moves into the adjoining Grange with his three daughters, how can he know what dark forces his work will unleash?
A finer, more chilling ghostly novel than most of those recently published. Mr Damp deserves a place in the gallery of great English night creatures. M. R. James might have been proud to have created him, and I certainly would be.
Ramsey Campbell
A high energy fantasy with very powerful scenes. . . a chilling and dramatic end.
Books for Keeps.
This is an excellent book, which celebrates and transcends genre. As much family story as ghost story. A tense drama of abuse, neglect and longing. An old-fashioned ghost tale with a modern edge, consciously a tribute to M R James in its setting and atmosphere. It echoes a book such as Margaret Mahy's The Changeover in its depiction of children rallying their defences against the urgency of adult appetites.
Neil Philip, The Times
Truly, a Jamesian romp. The author uses his sources with care, in a well-plotted mystery with some genuine chills
