Acerca deste libro electrónico
The brutal history of an abandoned English prison comes to life in this gothic novel of superstition, criminality, and capital punishment.
In the northwest of England, Calvary Gaol was a fearsome house of correction where many prisoners were put to death before it was shut down. With its grim façade and terrifying past, it remains as foreboding as ever. Especially on a chilly night, when its ghosts can all but be heard chattering: from the doomed political radical to the dapper ladies' man with a knife in his sleeve, the blackmailed doctor, or the spiritualist who fed, like a vampire, on the misery of World War I.
Though long abandoned, the ghosts of Calvary are still calling, and TV producer Chad Ingram can't stop listening. With a crew and a journalist in tow, he resolves to capture the prison's notorious execution chamber on film. With the bustle and technology of the twenty-first century, surely they've got nothing to fear . . .
