Publisher's Synopsis
A desirable semi-detached house harbours a dreadful scene. The strains of a funeral mass carry a warning to two young lovers. A bridegroom swears that death itself would not part him from his intended; another man's wife proves this true. Spirits of long-ago women reach out across the years, whilst a corpse refuses to leave its murderer alone. Waxworks appear so lifelike, it's as if they are about to rise and walk - meanwhile, marble effigies in a village church are rumoured to do precisely that. Welcome to that other world which beats a constant undercurrent beneath our own - the world which knows the power of darkness.
