Soft cover. Condition: New. The first in a series of stories from the Raj, which brings to you supernatural tales set in British India, where bungalows, dâk houses, railway lines, jungle outposts and everyday objects become the sites of inexplicable—and often terrifying— encounters. When empire settles in for the night, the ghosts begin to speak. In the bungalows, dâk houses, hill stations, jungle roads and cantonments of British India, the dark carries footsteps in empty rooms, voices from the next chamber, omens of death, cursed objects, restless animals, buried crimes and memories that refuse to stay buried. The Raj in Ghostly Light gathers classic supernatural stories from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, by writers including Rudyard Kipling, Alice Perrin, B.M. Croker, Flora Annie Steel, Arthur Conan Doyle, S. Mukerji and others. These are tales of hauntings, madness, fever, guilt and dread—and of the anxieties beneath imperial confidence. Atmospheric, unsettling and richly evocative, this collection opens a door into the shadowed rooms of the Raj, where every verandah has a whisper and the past is never quite past.…
