Following the success of her breakthrough novel Lucy s Monster, 25-year-old author R L Royle is back with a ghost story unlike any other. Eleven Terrible Months explores what really happens in a haunted house and how it affects the people living there. This book is terrifyingly realistic and you will laugh and cry as you come to know the Walkingtons, the family subjected to the haunting. The Walkingtons, Sue, Roy and their three teenage children, were just like any other working-class Yorkshire family until January 1998, when they moved into their new home; a 3-bedroomed flat in Beeston, West Yorkshire. What followed was a hellish year that almost ripped the humorous, tight-knit family apart. They eventually fled in November 1998, with their lives and nerves in tatters. What exactly happened to the Walkingtons during their time at 289 Millshaw Grove? In their own words, three of the five members of the family detail their lives at the time, their separate and shared unexplainable experiences, and the emotions, opinions and consequences thrown up from their eleven terrible months back in 1998. With frights so real they will give you nightmares, lashings of laugh-out-loud humour, and interesting explorations of family dynamics; Eleven Terrible Months is a fiction novel that you will never forget. As well as being an unforgettable story, this hardback novel is produced to the highest design quality, including photography and extras not usually found in fiction novels.
Rebecca Lee Royle was born to British parents in Toronto, Canada in the summer of 1982. Growing up in West Yorkshire, England, she attended Woodkirk High School, where she developed a taste for heavy metal and played drums in several punk bands.

Royle s first published novel, the critically acclaimed Lucy s Monster, was published in April 2006 and was an instant national and international success. Eleven Terrible Months is R L Royle s second book for publication; it s been a book she s been itching to write since she was ten years old, when she got her first taste of over the top unrealistic horror movies. Royle also claims to have lived in several haunted house herself, having to move out of one because it was too frightening to live in.
