House of Small Shadows by Adam Nevill

Part of Plymouth International Book Week 

Adam Nevill has been a devotee of the supernatural in fiction since his father read him M R James at bedtime. As well as The Ritual and Apartment 16, Adam is the author of the occult thriller Banquet of the Damned. He will be in conversation as he talks about his latest book, House of Small Shadows.

When the late M. H. Mason’s elderly niece invites Catherine to stay at Red House to catalogue his wildly eccentric collection of antique dolls and puppets, she can’t believe her luck. Until his niece exposes her to the dark message behind her uncle’s "art". M. H. Mason’s damaged visions raise dark shadows from her own past. Soon the barriers between reality, sanity and memory start to merge. And some truths seem too terrible to be real...

“Nevill presents us with nightmare image after nightmare image, and sells his horrors with admirable clarity and simplicity . . . a first-rate literary bogeyman” – SFX
