About this listen

Ruby is the most violently disturbed patient ever admitted to Drummersgate Asylum, high on the bleak moors of northern England. With no improvement after two years, Dr. Jack McGowan finally decides to take a risk and hypnotizes her - with terrifying consequences.

A horrific dark force is now unleashed on the entire medical team, as each in turn attempts to unlock Ruby's shocking and sinister past. Who is this girl? And how did she manage to survive such unimaginable evil? Set in a desolate ex-mining village, where secrets are tightly kept and intruders hounded out, their questions soon lead to a haunted mill, the heart of darkness, and the father of lies.

Simply amazing and the build up was perfect. It took a while though to get used to the author's writing style. It was a bit hard to follow in the start, switching back and forth between present, a year ago, two years ago, many many years ago. But it was all worth it.

Wow!!

It's been awhile since something - book, movie, tv show - kept me awake like this. Not only in the sense that it was spooky and I expected shadows and dark figures to populate my house at night, but the story was so engaging that I finished it within a day.
I have favourite authors in different genres, but hadn't yet found a favourite horror author. I think Sarah England might just be my favourite horror writer. Can't wait to get into her other stories!
Added to the great writing, the narration by Henrietta Meire was spot on - different voices and subtly different accents, and suuuper creeepy when necessary. Her demon voice had me on edge.

Loved it!

Excellent!

I've had limited success with titles from the audible members catalogue, but this was great. An intriguing story, well written and performed. Definitely recommend to any fan of supernatural horror. Be mindful there are some themes of horrific child abuse but it's handled reasonably skilfully without gratuitous descriptions.

A winner from the plus catalogue!
