Overview
John Travers has been hanged for the murder of his mother-in-law, Helga. Yet to those who knew him, the verdict does not sit easily.
Compelled by a desire for justice and troubled by the sense that darker forces were at play, John’s friend Doctor Toogood sets out to tell the true story. What unfolds is a haunting tale of love, jealousy, and the malign influence of a shadowy and implacable evil that reaches far beyond the ordinary motives of crime.
First published in 1927, this unsettling novel by husband-and-wife writing duo Rosalie and Edward Synton, whose real surname was Corse-Scott, disappeared from view for nearly a century. Now restored from library collections, it returns to deliver its occult chills and atmospheric intrigue to a new generation of readers.
