- Book Synopsis
- 'Read at night, with the lights low, in one sitting' ObserverA triumph of contemporary horror from the Booker Prize-shortlisted author, this collection of short stories will haunt you long after you turn the final page. A place of myths, rumours and secrets, The Hotel looms over the dark fens, tall and grey in its Gothic splendour. Built on cursed land, a history of violent death suffuses its very foundations - yet it has a magnetism that is impossible to ignore. On entering The Hotel, different people react in different ways. Many come out refreshed, longing to return. But a few are changed for ever, haunted by their time there. And almost all those affected are women… 'A new goddamn swaggering monster of fiction' Lauren Groff, bestselling author of MATRIX 'Chilling tales of ghosts and witches, monsters and manifestations' Guardian 'Spend an eerie night at this haunted literary hotel' Sunday Telegraph 'The British literary heir to Stephen King' Sunday Times 'Haunting' Vogue
