The Lingering – SJI Holliday
Release Date: 30th September 2018
Genre: Mystery/ Thriller
*****
Married couple Jack and Ali Gardiner move to a self-sufficient commune in the English Fens, desperate for fresh start. The local village is known for the witches who once resided there and Rosalind House, where the commune has been established, is a former psychiatric home, with a disturbing history.
When Jack and Ali arrive, a chain of unexpected and unexplained events is set off, and it becomes clear that they are not all that they seem. As the residents become twitchy, and the villagers suspicious, events from the past come back to haunt them, and someone is seeking retribution…
At once an unnerving locked-room mystery, a chilling thriller and a dark and superbly wrought ghost story, The Lingering is an exceptionally plotted, terrifying and tantalisingly twisted novel by one of the most exciting authors in the genre.

You may have noticed by now- I LOVE Orenda Books, take a little look at their catalogue here to see why.
I have every faith in Karen Sullivan and Orenda Books and as I mentioned last week, they’ve become my very first Auto-Buy publisher.
