Description

A scorned young woman will have her vengeance, even after death. 1776 - Jennet is fifteen and alone. Isolated and vulnerable, she finds safety in the arms of local wool merchant, Richard Ramsgill. Or so she thinks. Present Day - Emma and Dave's hopes of a fresh start in their new home are shattered when Emma hears the bells of the old village church. But this is impossible, the village of Thores-Cross and its church were drowned decades ago by the waters of Thruscross Reservoir. Emma soon learns the dark significance of the bells: Jennet has woken. --- Fans of Barbara Erskine, Katherine Clements and Susanna Kearsley will love this haunting and evocative, dual-timeline novel moving between the isolation and oppression of life in a 1700s Yorkshire moors village and present day. --- *Silver Medal Winner, European fiction - 2015 IPPY Book Awards

Author Biography:

Karen Perkins is the author of the Yorkshire Ghost Stories, the Pendle Witch Short Stories and the Valkyrie Series of historical nautical fiction. Her fiction has appeared at the top of bestseller lists on both sides of the Atlantic, including the top 21 in the UK Kindle Store in 2018. Her first Yorkshire Ghost Story - THE HAUNTING OF THORES-CROSS - won the Silver Medal for European Fiction in the prestigious 2015 Independent Publisher Book Awards in New York, whilst her Valkyrie novel, DEAD RECKONING, was long-listed in the 2011 MSLEXIA novel competition. Originally a financial advisor, a sailing injury left Karen with a chronic pain condition (although she did take the European ladies title despite the injury!). Writing has given her a new lease of - and purpose to - life, and she is currently working on a sequel to Parliament of Rooks: Haunting Brontë Country, as well as the next Pendle Witch story. Karen Perkins is a member of the Society of Authors, the Writers' Guild of Great Britain and the Horror Writers Association.
