'Victorian horror at its best’ NetGalley Reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘A model of Victorian gothic… should be read by the light of a flickering gas lamp’ Mike Ripley
MANCHESTER 1888
Through the darkness of a mid-winter nightshift, the flicker of a candle flame illuminates the exhaustion in Dr Warren Carter’s eyes; memories of a painful surgery and the fine line of human frailty haunt his every thought. A nightcap with the beautiful Rosie is just the tonic he needs.
What should’ve been a pleasant encounter soon turns sinister when the young nurse disappears without a trace.
One by one, more disappearances occur at the hospital, until a private investigator is brought in to assist. But rather than finding answers, he becomes trapped in a nightmare of his own making…
Do you dare read The Soul Thief?
