A young girl waits on a storm-tossed beach for a mother lost at sea. A ferryman guides strange passengers to a village in ruins. Spirits lurk in a sunken warship to protect the creatures below. And high in a clock tower, two peregrines roost. This is a world both familiar and strange, a landscape beautiful and wild, where history hangs heavy and tragedy has left its mark. Where spectral guardians walk and ancient spirits rule the woods, and where the rivers keep their secrets. Combining a love of the natural world and the gothic, Marc Harris has crafted a collection of short stories and poetry that brings a haunted Britain to life.…mehr
