Paranormal

This short, poignant and intelligent novelette extrapolates society's current need for global consumerism and seemingly relentless expansion.

The author Sue Knight has delved deep into the underlying wants and needs of a society determined to have the best of the best at a fraction of the cost, regardless of the long term impact.

This tale is set in the midst of that impact, and it is a chilling indictment of the dangers of runaway capitalism.

Audio version read by Penelope MacDonald. A Red Room production for Fantastic Books Audio. Music by Kevin MacLeod.

It is Christmas 1914. As Europe descends further into the Great War, Christopher Flyte is sent home in disgrace from his school. He returns to the sleepy English village of Alton. There he meets the mysterious traveller, Bailey - a master storyteller who fills the boy's head with stories of King Arthur's time. The more Christopher hears, the more he suspects that Bailey's stories are more than just simple myths. Soon, Christopher finds himself a pawn in a game that has been playing out for centuries....

...an enthralling, nuanced read...

Grief-stricken Nick Blaketon is working in York, a mediaeval city of half-timbered houses and tight cobbled streets where Viking re-enactors thrill the tourists. Yet once it was a Roman town that garrisoned the Ninth Legion and the Sixth Victrix. Deep in modern cellars a sacrifice stirs as a temple rebuilds.

Nick believes his dead lover, Alice, is lost to him forever – until she erupts in a flood of water begging to be freed.

Vibius Fulcinius believes the Christ-men aim to eliminate the true religions, and vows to protect the Temple of Mithras.

York police believe Sophie Trevott is leading a double life, and that mentally fragile Blaketon is involved in her disappearance.

When a Roman lamp appears on his desk, Nick suspects that Alice’s nightly visits are altering the flow of time. Before it realigns, can he can snatch her back from death and restore her to him?

...a beautifully crafted paranormal thriller...
