Worrying about his wife’s mental state—she blames herself for the disappearance of their younger child—Gabe Calleg rents a house in a quiet province, where he moves the whole family. The odd and ominous manor barely resembles a quiet, cozy home—the Cryekly Hall is full of ghosts and riddles. Many years ago, back during World War II, these places were badly damaged by a terrible flood, and all the inhabitants of Cryekly Hall died. But was it only the elements that took their lives? And what do the ghosts inhabiting this mysterious house want?
A new novel by James Herbert, the acclaimed master of the mystical, rival of Stephen King—whose books have been translated into more than thirty languages— for the first time in Russian!
