The stained glass of a French cathedral is cursed by dark magic; an Icelandic rune raises a terrifying revenant; a fossil triggers an incursion from the fairy otherworld; three men are mysteriously burnt to death in an open field; a mysterious book haunts the dreams of three people over decades. Featuring seven stories of the supernatural and macabre, including 'This Is My Book' (winner of a prize in the 2018 'Ghosts in the Bookshop' short story competition), historian F. K. Young's début collection of ghost stories explores the terrors that await incautious delvers into the unquiet past.
