Astaroth: A Coralie Westerly Story

Before he died, I hadn’t seen my dad in years. Now I see him all the time.I used to work at a tattoo studio in Brighton until the day my dad came in to see me. He had died a week earlier. I saw him everywhere after that.I knew the way to fix this would be in my childhood home, in the one room of the house he forbid me to enter until the day I did; the day I ran away. I knew I would need help.Anton de Vane used to be one of the most famous ghost hunters on TV, but after they canceled his show, he’d been slumming it with live readings in seaside playhouses. My house could be his ticket to a comeback.Tom Burgess is only a ghost hunter in his spare time because, as he will freely admit, he doesn’t believe in ghosts. His speciality is debunking paranormal phenomena, but I have a feeling he may struggle with my dad.When both showman and skeptic arrive on the same day to take care of my ghost, I knew it was going to be explosive but I hadn’t realised it would be dangerous; I hadn’t realised there would be so much blood.And that was before I showed them what was in the attic…Astaroth is the first in a series of standalone horror novels connected only by their unusual narrator, mortuary assistant Coralie Westerly. If you like spine-chilling supernatural horror stories like Stolen Tongues or The Haunting of Hill House, then you won’t want to miss this book.
