A chilling, classically-inspired ghost story from Susan Hill, our reigning mistress of spine-tingling fiction.
nbsp;
For the last twenty years Sir James Monmouth has journeyed all over the globe in the footsteps of his hero, the great pioneering traveler Conrad Vane. In an effort to learn more about Vane's early life--and his own--Sir James sets off for the remote Kittiscar Hall on a cold and rainy winter night. But he soon begins to feel as though something is warning him away at every turn; there are the intense feelings of being watched and the strange apparitions of a sad little boy. And as he learns more about his hero's past, he discovers that they are only the beginning, for Kittiscar Hall is hiding terrible secret that will bind their lives together in ways he could never have imagined.
"Originally published in Great Britain by Sinclair-Stevenson, London, in 1992"--Title page verso.

He arrives in England on a dark and rainy night with the intention of discovering more, not only about himself but about his obsession with Conrad Vane, an explorer. Warned against following his trail, Sir James experiences some extraordinary happenings.
