A spooky supernatural thriller by the author of the Merrily Watkins series
Liam Defford doesn't believe in ghosts. As the head of a production company, however, he does believe in high-impact TV. On the lookout for his next idea, he hires journalist Grayle Underhill to research the history of Knap Hall—a Tudor farmhouse turned luxury hotel, abandoned by its owners at the height of its success. The staff has been paid to keep quiet about what happened there, but the stories seep through. They're not conducive to a quick sale, but Defford isn't interested in keeping Knap Hall for more than a few months. Just long enough to make a reality TV show that will run nightly. A house isolated by its rural situation and its dark reputation; six people—known to the nation but strangers to one another—locked inside; but this time Big Brother is not in control.

Phil Rickman is the author of the John Dee series and the Merrily Watkins series.
Engrossing and beautifully dark, combining personality disordered TV performers (like myself) and morally vacant journalists along with a collection of spiritual and spirited oddballs all residing in a Big Brother type situation and the inevitable clashes that result. Chuck in a house which may or may not be haunted but certainly has the bleakest of atmospheres and a cracking good read ensues. -- Jo Brand Compassionate, original and sharply contemporary, Rickman's crime series is one of the best around * Spectator on the Merrily Watkins series * Ancient history, violent deaths, feuds, intrigues and murder. A most original sleuth * The Times on the Merrily Watkins series * Few writers blend the ancient and supernatural with the modern and criminal better than Rickman * Guardian on the Merrily Watkins series * First-rate crime with demons that go bump in the night * Daily Mail on the Merrily Watkins series *
