The House of a Hundred Whispers

'God, it's good' STEPHEN KING
On a windswept moor, an old house guards its secrets…
The new standalone horror novel from 'a true master of horror.'
All Hallows Hall is a rambling Tudor mansion on the edge of the bleak and misty Dartmoor. It is not a place many would choose to live. Yet the former Governer of Dartmoor Prison did just that. Now he's dead, and his children — long estranged — are set to inherit his estate.
But when the dead man's family come to stay, the atmosphere of the moors seems to drift into every room. Floorboards creak, secret passageways echo, and wind whistles in the house's famous priest hole. And then, on the same morning the family decide to leave All Hallows Hall and never come back, their young son Timmy disappears — from inside the house.
Does evil linger in the walls? Or is evil only ever found inside the minds of men?

    Yet without time we would never have the chance to find love, or happiness, or excitement. Whatever fulfilment we find in life, time brings it to us, even if the day will inevitably come when it drains it all away again, like an ebbing tide sliding away across the sand.

    Ada understood then that living for ever, suspended for all eternity in the same second, was a far worse punishment than death.

    Sometimes you can be faced with something that frightens the living shit out of you, but life doesn’t give you any other choice except to confront it head-on. Timmy’s our son. I’m his father and I have to save him or die trying.’

    my destiny. Sometimes you’re confronted with things in your life and you realise that you have to deal with them. You don’t have a choice, because that’s what you were born for.
