Summary

The best of times and the worst of tidings: it’s Hallowe’en at the House of Werth…
 
Augusta Honoria Werth. Deceased October 31st, 1821. 
 
What passes for family peace is shattered (yet again) with the arrival of Nell, and the Book of Spectres. There, written in good black ink, is the date of Gussie’s death: three days from now, on Hallowtide itself.
 
Not just Gussie, but all the Werths are slated, somehow, to die. With a maleficent Book as the bearer of bad news, the recalcitrant tomes must be involved; but who’s behind the boisterous books, and why have they got it in for Gussie?
 
With no time at all to stave off disaster, and more than the family honour on the line, the Werths must pull together in the face of their greatest crisis yet. Not such a tall order, surely?
 
Rejoin the worst and Wyrdest of families at the spookiest time of the year! The Werths versus inevitable doom: what could possibly go wrong? WARNING, this tale will expose you to: rambunctious revenants, garrulous ghouls, and tumultuous (and terrifying) tomes, handle with care.
Available since: 09/23/2025.
Print length: 283 pages.
