    The Coffin Path: 'the scariest ghost story I have read in a long time' (Barbara Erskine)

    Katherine Clements

    Formats & Editions

    A gothic tale from the wild Yorkshire moors, to haunt your imagination and chill you to the bone.

    READERS LOVE THE COFFIN PATH ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    'Chilling, mysterious, unnerving and romantic'

    'Ideal for dark winter nights'

    'An incredible work of modern gothic'

    'I didn't want it to end'

    'Worthy of comparisons with Hill, King and Du Maurier... seriously'

    Maybe you've heard tales about Scarcross Hall, the house on the old coffin path that winds from village to moor top.

    They say there's something up here, something evil.

    Mercy Booth isn't afraid. The moors are her home and lifeblood. But, beneath her certainty, small things are beginning to trouble her. Three ancient coins missing from her father's study, the shadowy figure out by the gatepost, an unshakeable sense that someone is watching.

    When a stranger appears seeking work, Mercy reluctantly takes him in. As their stories entwine, this man will change everything. She just can't see it yet.

    'Eerily gripping... the ghosts of the past haunt the present in more ways than one' SUNDAY TIMES

    'The perfect ghost story' MANDA SCOTT

    'Wonderfully sinister' THE TIMES

    'Brooding and full of creeping menace' LAURA PURCELL
