Heard on Audiobook. While not the best written book, this would make a great TV movie or X-files episode.

It‘s a narrow 3 stars for me. I contemplated giving it a 2.5, but that felt too harsh. It‘s not a bad story, but a bit less atmospheric and a bit more visceral than James‘ other stories (that I have read so far). Not my cup of tea exactly, but a good base for a Call of Cthulhu pen and paper one-shot, I feel.

A fost interesantă, chiar dacă destul de previzibilă.
Stephen rămâne orfan și ajunge în grija vărului său mai mare, Abney - un om pasionat de mistere și ritualuri păgâne. Servitorii îl consideră pe Abney un bărbat bun la suflet, care a luat în grija sa alți doi copii... dispăruți la scurt timp după aceea.
