Crackling with psychological tension, Ghost Song crosses the centuries to reveal the terrifying truth about a long-defunct London theatre.
Evoking the best qualities of Daphne Du Maurier and Ruth Rendell, this is the most mesmerising suspense yet from the author of Tower Of Silence and The Death Chamber. Like the latter, it centres on a dark and imposing building, this time the old Tarleton music hall, where the doors have been closed and its seats empty for nearly a century.
Asked to survey it, Robert Fallon discovers a place of squeaky floorboards, strange whispers and a sinister secret. Together with researcher Hilary Bryant, he probes its menacing history to uncover the legend of its ghost, first seen in the heyday of Toby Chance, a performer who strangely vanished just before the theatre closed. But the outing of the secret unleashes a torrent of events from the past that threatens to suck both Robert and Hilary under.
