    About this ebook

    The arrival of an intimidating new female neighbour across from a somewhat reclusive writer, coincides with the delivery of a manuscript and a letter from the solicitor of a now deceased father Jeremy Culshaw has not seen since he deserted both him and his mother some thirty-eight tears before. 

     

    It is a manuscript that will test the son's credulity while both appalling and revolting him as it tells of a family curse and the danger in which it places him.

    A curse, if real, in which he senses the huge and seductive Latina woman now living across from him will play a leading part.

     

    And then her daughter arrives…

     

    This edition comes complete with illustrated chapter-headings.

     

    Rafael Menton is a Professor of English Literature with a retro passion for the early to mid-twentieth-century fiction of mystery, crime, suspense, and horror with erotic undertones; ranging from Doyle and Blackwood and on to Rohmer – as well as sometimes indulging in a more contemporary take of his own on the work of those masters.
