What you need to know before your trail

Macabre murders plague a rural town as a scam-artist psychic races to find the answers in this haunting thriller from award-winning author Jen Williams, perfect for fans of C.J. Tudor and Alex North.

As a child, Ashley Whitelam was haunted by ghostly figures no one else could see. Silent and watchful, these Heedful Ones followed her wherever she went. She hasn’t seen them for eighteen years, not since that fateful night at Red Rigg House. But now they’re back, and they’re trying to tell her something.

Travel Guide

The Lake District

The novel is vague on location but this is clearly set in the Lake District. Ambleside is mentioned briefly but the rest of the location is only evoked with atmosphere and the sense of remoteness and beauty.

Red Rigg house is of course not real but there is a Red Screes and a Red Tarn.
