Crow's Cottage by John Bowen


I Need More More More!

I had heard such great things on the first Where the Dead Walk book but I hadn't read it so was even more curious when I saw the Crow's Cottage cover and blurb. I just couldn't help myself I had to give it a try. 

I am so glad I listened to it on Audible as narration was also amazing and just added to the story.

I often grew up watching shows similar to Where the Dead Walks with my mum. I wasn't huge believer but she was and I love the history behind so many of the locations and the ghost stories.

I think that's why I took to the book straight away. It follows the production team of the Ghost hunting TV show Where the Dead Walk including there new hostess Chloe who is excited to start new job. 

It's there investigation into paranormal activity at Crow's Cottage that leads the team back to 1988 to the story of a man who took his own life and a woman disappeared after a party there. 

That is also what gripped me to the story as it wasn't a typical ghost hunt that I was expecting. The show helps to solve a 30 year old mystery and it's developed between  the present and the flashes into the history. I didn't want to put it down. 

As I mentioned this is book 2 in the series but I hadnt read the first one and it works well on it's own. I have however just purchased the first one about 10 minutes after finishing it as author  Steve Bowan intrigued me so much and I wanted more. Here's hoping for another one soon.
