Genres: Ghost; Horror

Synopsis

Desperate to get away from the village, Mercy accepts an unusual assignment from her boss. Clute Cottage is a small, rundown home, isolated in the Cornish countryside. And as she sets off to pay the cottage a visit, Mercy find herself driving headfirst into the biggest storm to hit Cornwall in living memory.

As soon as she arrives at Clute Cottage, Mercy knows that something's not right. Suitcases mysteriously move around the place, constantly returning to the hallway. A strange stain outlines a human figure on the ceiling, and this particular stain catches Mercy out in more ways than one. And why does the empty armchair in the corner keep creaking, as if someone's sitting there?

With time running out as the storm threatens to destroy the cottage, Mercy finds herself trapped in a race against time to discover the truth. Did an unspeakable tragedy once strike Clute Cottage? And are dark forces conspiring to keep the truth from ever getting out?

The Curse of Clute Cottage is the fourth book in the six-part first Mercy Willow series, about an estate agent in deepest Cornwall who develops the unusual ability to communicate with ghosts. Readers are advised to start at the beginning of the series. This book ends on a cliffhanger.
