The Old Inn clings precariously to a cliff top above a storm-lashed
ocean. Ethan and Cathy are sick. Their father has left them to fetch a
doctor... but they are not alone for long.
A visitor comes begging for shelter, and so the children, who have an
unnatural appetite for stories of a macabre persuasion, sit out the
throes of the storm in the company of a sailor with more than enough
grisly tales to satisfy them. But whatever horrors the stormy night can
conjure, they are nothing compared with the heart-stopping revelation of
a new dawn...
Eleven spine-chilling tales for older children from bestselling author
Chris Priestley.
