Dark Echo is an unlucky boat. Despite this knowledge, Martin Stannard falls under her spell and prepares to sail her across the Atlantic with his wealthy father. But his lover Suzanne begins exploring the yacht's past. What she finds is terrifying.
Because this boat isn't just unlucky, it's evil. It was built for Henry Spalding, a soldier and sorcerer who committed suicide yet still casts his malevolent spell nearly a century after his death. Suzanne must uncover his last, terrible secret before Dark Echo destroys the man she loves.

F. G. Cottam lives in Kingston-upon-Thames, England. After a career in the magazine world, he is now a full-time novelist. He is also author of The House of Lost Souls.
'F.G. Cottam's complex, tautly atmospheric thriller delivers plenty of chills ... the perfect dark winter night yarn' -- Daily Mail 20081031 'Beautifully written and highly engaging' -- Daily Mirror 20081031 'A terrifying encounter with manifest evil ... chilling novel ... His adrenaline-charged prose is drawn tight with suspense' -- James Urquhart, Financial Times on THE HOUSE OF LOST SOULS 20080301 'Full of interest and not a little tension ... (Cottam) knows a lot more about good writing than his supposedly more upmarket competitors' -- Guardian 20081129 'A very good read ... the characters are convincing, the settings authentic and it is well paced, with room for slow menace as well as hectic action' -- Historical Novels Review 20081101 'Just the thing for a dark, cold January night: a supernatural spine-chiller and romantic heart-warmer.' -- Saga 20081101 'A beautifully-written, superior supernatural thriller, Dark Echo dons the mantle of past great British adventure writers. He is a natural heir of Rider Haggard, Conan Doyle and Buchan, via the Edwardian master ghost story writer, MR James.' -- Liverpool Daily Post 20081101 'Old-fashioned suspense combined with modern horror imagery to produce a fine example of the genre.' -- The Times on THE HOUSE OF LOST SOULS 20080322 'A clever thriller: spooky, atmospheric, often genuinely frightening. Another auspicious debut.' -- Peter Guttridge on THE HOUSE OF LOST SOULS 20080121
