When Alex Easton travels to Gallacia as a favour to their friend, the
excellent Miss Potter, they find their home empty, the caretaker
dead, and the grounds blanketed by an uncanny silence. The locals
won?t talk about what happened to the caretaker. None of them will
set foot on the grounds.
Whispers of an unearthly breath-stealing creature from Gallacian
folklore don?t trouble practical Easton. But as strange visions disturb
their sleep and odd happenings increase, they are forced to
confront the dark shadow that hangs over the house?
