Dead Man's Fingers

Rural England, 1902: Adventurous young academic Tabitha Birch is drawn into the dark world of the dowager Countess Addingrove by an invitation to examine a mysterious statue at lonely Elizabethan manor house, Addingrove Hall. But Tabitha is shocked to discover that the old statue has a strange hypnotic presence - and, somehow it seems, a thirst for blood - and when events at the manor house take a sinister turn, she barely escapes with her life. With danger closing in around her, Tabitha must race to unravel a terrible family secret entangled with an arcane evil now reawakening and hungry for revenge. A deranged minister, a beautiful Regency courtesan and a dangerous occult hallucinogen will lead Tabitha back in time to confront a secret society of sadistic aristocrats whose depraved activities mask the presence of something supernatural and ravenous. For nearly a century it has slept, its secrets hidden, but immortal evil has a long, long memory ... DEAD MAN’S FINGERS is a terrifying Gothic horror tale of buried secrets, sins and spectres reaching out of the past to claw at the present.
