Ashcroft: Ash-Tree Press:, 2007. Hardcover, Limited edition, Fine in Fine dust jacket, 178 pp. Cover artwork by: Jason Van Hollander A balmy Meditteranean evening is not the time when conversation may be expected to turn to the grim landscape of the Black Country of the Midlands of England. But the arrival of Ronald and Evelyn Wake brings with it a chilling story set in that unlikely location. The Wakes had been returning from a holiday in Wales, when a puncture forced them to seek accommodation for the night. They found it at the remote Fox Inn, a near neighbour to the house of Cold Harbour and the estate of Mr Humphrey Furnival, a man whose mocking laugh belies his guile and cleverness. Using paranormal powers, Furnival attracts Evelyn Wake's interest, and the couple are invited to visit Cold Harbour, to view the manuscripts of a minor poet in whom Evelyn is interested.
