Product Description
Watch out for a ghostly ship and its spectral crew off the coast of Cornwall
Listen for the unearthly tread and rustling silk dress of Darlington's Lady Jarratt
Shiver at the malevolent apparition of 50 Berkeley Square that no-one survives seeing
England's past echoes with stories of unquiet spirits and hauntings, of headless highwaymen and grey ladies, indelible bloodstains and ghastly premonitions.

As I have only just received this book and therefore not had time to read it, it's not really fair that I post a review but after opening the package to find a book that's cover was so creased it might as well have come from a carboot sale I can't help myself. I take it not many copies have been sold as this one must have been knocking about in storage a very long time, however after a cursory glance through the contents it's doesn't look like it's going to be to bad a read, I have loads of similar titles and haven't really come across one that I didn't enjoy.
I will edit my review as and when I have finished the book, but as for the quality, come on amazon, get your act together or I'll start using ottakars, they might be more expensive but at least I get to choose the quality before I buy!.
