Into the Water, Into the Flame (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781549555466)

Two friends embark on a voyage of adventure only to find themselves trapped in a terrifying nightmare from which neither will emerge unscathed. Joe and Mike are having the time of their lives at the country's number one amusement park, 'Terror Hall', but as the day wears on they begin to realise that someone or something is watching them. The boys' sense of unease grows as they uncover the eerie tale of an ancient family whose terrible actions still echo down the centuries. Over the ancestral mansion and its grounds, where the amusement park now thrives, a curse still casts its shadow, a curse that seems determined to touch the lives of the two adolescent boys. Joe and Mike know they must do something and manage to trace the mystery to the park's picturesque but deadly boating lake. There, below the calm surface of the water, lie the remains of a village drowned hundreds of years before. Down in the murky depths, hiding within the broken walls of the town lurks a horror beyond the imagination. As darkness draws in and the boys hide in the ornamental gardens, camping overnight in order to avoid paying for a second day, they begin to realise they have made a terrible mistake. Something is waiting in the shadows, watching with hungry eyes, something evil, something not of this Earth.'Into the Water, Into the Flame' is a supernatural tale of suspense and horror. Interwoven themes of friendship, guilt and trust lead to a violent and unforgettable climax.Published previously as 'The Curse of Terror Hall'."Bleakly poised and moving...perfectly captures the cadences of adolescence" - Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy writing in The Sunday Telegraph on 'Waving at Trains'."A guilty pleasure" - Comedian Stuart Lee writing in The Sunday Times on 'Last One Picked'.
