Synopsis
Midsummer, the Dorset coast
Guests gather for the opening of The Manor hotel, the new jewel on the Dorset coastline. The champagne is flowing, the guest list sparkling, the sun setting on an unforgettable summer solstice.
But under the cloak of celebration, something dark is stirring. The Manor has a secret history; built in the shadows of an ancient wood.
Now old friends and enemies are creeping out of the shadows.
And they'll soon discover what other deadly secrets come out at night . . .
Laced with atmosphere and a chilling edge of folklore, The Midnight Feast is available to pre-order now.
