Ghosts

by Simon Fellowes

Hanlon is blocked. It’s unusual for him, but the contemporary world is moving so quickly he finds it impossible to pin anything down. His agent is concerned, aware of the importance of maintaining momentum. The public is voracious; if their urges aren’t satisfied they swiftly move on.

In the search for a story, Hanlon starts reading through an old film script of his, hoping it might inspire him.

The screenplay takes him back to a time he’s somehow forgotten, disinterring memories he thought dead and buried.

‘Ghosts’ is a compelling tale of hidden secrets. Two narratives in one, it’s a story of a couple trying to break free from their lives, and a man trying to reconnect with the one he fears might be killing him.
