Beschreibung

All four books in Helen Susan Swift's series of historical horror novels, 'Tales From The Dark Past', now available in one volume!
 
Dark Voyage: It’s 1914, and fear and paranoia rule the high seas. Iain Cosgrove sets sail abroad Lady Balgay, last of Dundee’s once-grand sealing fleet. Fueled by rum and the tales of John Pratt, the crew obsess over ancient superstitions; ones Iain casually dismisses as simple lore... until they reach the frigid Artic seas. Soon, Iain's beliefs are shaken when the ship discovers two castaways, and events take a sinister turn.
 
Dark Mountain: In the West Highlands of Scotland, few years after the end of World War One, Brenda and her friends are preparing for an expedition of a lifetime: climbing An Cailleach, also known as The Witch. But even before they reach the base of the mountain, they realize that something is wrong. Strange apparitions, even stranger locals and ancient superstitions are all signs that they are on a dangerous path. What evil lurks in the depths of the dark mountain?
 
Dark Capital: Edinburgh, 1820s. On one side is the Old Town; ancient, crumbling and full of poverty. On the other is the New Town - elegant, refined and prosperous. When newly qualified Doctor Martin Elliot arrives, he discovers that there is more darkness in the streets than he could have imagined. Ghosts of the long-dead haunt the houses, and nightmares soon fill Martin’s head. Only a relic of the past seems to give Martin respite, but can be balance its power with the burden that comes with it?
 
Whistlers Of The Dark: Scotland, 1899. When young orphan Ellen Luath starts work as a kitchen maid in a remote farm, she hopes she has left her troubled past behind. But something is not right at Kingsinch farm. Soon, supernatural forces of long past return to haunt Ellen, enclosing her in a circle of darkness. As time and place alter, can she keep her sanity and find her place in an increasingly confusing and dangerous world?

    Fact?Fiction?Or an autobiography?Only you can decide after you have read… 
    BROTHERHOOD SPY No. 7 They do not want you to read what I have written in this book. It was first sent to a publisher (that I will not name) in the year 1977. 
    After three months of inquiries into the status of the manuscript, I received a small box shipped to me through the U.S. mail. Inside the box was the manuscript I’d sent to the publisher, with a note that read, 
    “We are unable to publish your novel.” 
    Just that one line, and no explanation as to why. 
    Under the note was the manuscript. It had been put through a pulp paper shredder—the kind used to shred top-secret government documents . . . 
    Why you may ask, would they want to stop you from reading my story? They say it’s because it tells too many secrets and that I’m a spy … a spy for the Brotherhood! 
    Now you can follow my story from my birth in the Midwestern city of St. Louis, Missouri, to the gang-infested streets of Chicago, Illinois, and into the war-torn jungles of Vietnam. 
    But what comes after, you will not believe . . .

    A dead body is not something you want to find in the walk-in freezer of a fancy trattoria! 
     
     
     
    But that is just what happens to our humble lettering artist, Mila Breaux. When she is contracted to hand letter the menus for the newest Italian restaurant in her small town of Monchac, Louisiana, it isn't all penne and chianti. Apparently, there is something funky going on at the new joint, and it isn't the expired fish! 
     
     
     
    That's because she's stumbled upon a corpsicle—the body of a pretty young woman who had her whole life ahead of her. And an artist, too! Just like Mila herself. Unfortunately, the Lettering Detective is the only one who seems interested in finding out the truth about what happened to the girl in the freezer, as those that own and run the restaurant seem in a rush to sweep it all under the rug. 
     
     
     
    Mila will need to enlist the help of her best friend, Critter Girl, along with a new furry ally who has decided to join them for this adventure. Can they get to the bottom of what happened to the frozen girl before it is too late? Or will asking too many questions get the gang in hot water?
