The Consul from Tunis: and other ghost stories - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Eight old university friends meet to tell strange and haunting tales from their lives. While their subtle and uncanny ghost stories are more thoughtful than violent, they often bring the past into the present with a short, sharp shock. These sixteen varied and well-sourced tales range from the Baltic Sea to the Sudan and from 17th century London to Tibet. They blend history and crime with the emphasis always on the characters and the lives that they lead. Travelling in the footsteps of M R James and Roald Dahl, what we have here are stories as puzzles and stories with an after-life.
