The Ghost Writer (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781910980149)

'Let me tell you a story about the time when my whole life changed...'

Peter Banner is an author with a string of moderately successful novels to his name, but is struggling with his family life and with writing after the pain of divorce.

Looking for both inspiration and a new place to live, he jumps at the chance to rent a remote rural cottage: a cottage that until recently belonged to Ed Steele, a famous horror author from the eighties.

His hope is for the same kind of inspiration that launched Ed Steele's career, but he soon discovers that all is not as it seems at Lake View Cottage; there is a growing presence within its walls that threatens to consume all who stay there.

With his neighbour Maddy at his side, can Peter Banner uncover the truth, or will he become another victim of whatever darkness lurks within this sleepy village?
