Synopsis

Seb Logan is a successful horror writer with a quiet life on the Devon coast. Then a dark figure starts appearing near him, always at a distance and always closer than before, and each sighting leaves him more watched, more afraid and less sure of what he is seeing.

The figure belongs to Seb's past. When it finally has a name and a request, Seb finds himself drawn into a circle of people who believe the world has doors in it, and who use them for their own ends.

Published in January 2017, the novel sits between the modern psychological thriller and the older English ghost story in the tradition of M. R. James.
