Death in the dusk

Virgil Markham

Sinopse

Lost in the Welsh countryside, antiquarian Alfred Bannerlee seeks shelter in a sprawling, decaying mansion just as a wedding is about to take place. But the eerie estate harbors chilling secrets, including the legend of Parson Lolly, a spectral figure said to haunt its halls. As night falls, the household is thrown into chaos when a series of inexplicable events—and murder—turn legend into terrifying reality.
 
Told through Bannerlee’s diary entries, Death in the Dusk is a gripping blend of gothic horror and detective fiction, where the line between the supernatural and reality blurs with every shadowy corridor.
