A thoroughly enjoyable, engaging novella with, as I find myself a huge fan of, a building, be it a house, castle, or in this case, an Abbey, as one of, if not, the main characters. Sian is, in my opinion, immediately likeable, but also interesting an ...more

I feel like I’ve just watched one of the best horror films I’ve ever seen. But The Undertaker’s House is a book, the author’s second. And it couldn’t be any more different than the first. The Undertaker’s House is an unnerving, unhealthy, unforgettab ...more
