The Coffin Path
The Coffin Path: 'The perfect ghost story' | Katherine Clements
7 posts | 5 read | 32 to read
An eerie and compelling ghost story set on the dark wilds of the Yorkshire moors. For fans of Michelle Paver and Helen Dunmore, this gothic tale will weave its way into your imagination and chill you to the bone. 'Spine-tingling... the scariest ghost story I have read in a long time' Barbara Erskine 'Brooding and full of creeping menace' Laura Purcell, author of The Silent Companions 'Like something from Emily Bronte's nightmares' Andrew Taylor, author of The Ashes of London Maybe you've heard tales about Scarcross Hall, the house on the old coffin path that winds from village to moor top. They say there's something up here, something evil. Mercy Booth isn't afraid. The moors and Scarcross are her home and lifeblood. But, beneath her certainty, small things are beginning to trouble her. Three ancient coins missing from her father's study, the shadowy figure out by the gatepost, an unshakeable sense that someone is watching. When a stranger appears seeking work, Mercy reluctantly takes him in. As their stories entwine, this man will change everything. She just can't see it yet.

It started snowing again tonight and I‘ve decided to curl up in bed with this book.

I‘m always a bit amazed at the randomness of what I choose to read next; I‘ve had this book for a few years and suddenly… here we are. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Exceptionally well written and captivating from the first line. Real elements of gothic atmosphere and a few times actually made my hairs stand on end! Great level of suspense throughout without being repetitive and wonderfully realised characters with human flaws that make them even more interesting. A wonderfully uncomfortable yet convincing reveal and twist at the end that is worth waitng for.

This spooky tale, set on the Yorkshire moors, is still TBR (but it has a #cemetery on the cover 😄).
