‘Neil Spring is Agatha Christie meets James Herbert’ STEPHEN VOLK

A haunting and spooky thriller, with an unforgettable twist!


The remote village of Imber – remote, lost and abandoned. The outside world hasn’t been let in since soldiers forced the inhabitants out, much to their contempt.

But now, a dark secret threatens all who venture near. Everyone is in danger, and only Harry Price can help. Reluctantly reunited with his former assistant Sarah Grey, he must unlock the mystery of Imber, and unsurface the secrets someone thought were long buried. But will Sarah’s involvement be the undoing of them both?

Reviews

Spring's fast-paced and often deliciously creepy novel has an orphaned hero, a spooky, isolated farmhouse and things that go bump in the night . . . highly readable
Daily Mail on The Ghost Hunters
A deft, spooky psychological drama based on a true story
Sunday Times on The Ghost Hunters
Surprising, serpentine and clever
Metro on The Ghost Hunters
Prepare to be pleasantly scared

Stephen Volk
There's nothing like a good ghost story, and this supernatural mystery kept me guessing to the last page. Neil Spring is Agatha Christie meets James Herbert
Paul Finch
A tense supernatural page-turner, loaded with atmospheric dread. Perfect for those long autumn nights
Angela Slatter, author of the World Fantasy Award-winning The Bitterwood Bible and Other Recountings
Masterfully mixing history with a damned fine ghost story, The Lost Village contains echoes of James Herbert at his spectral best. Neil Spring has produced another atmospheric read, and his Sarah Grey is a narrator who's hard to forget
Isabelle Broom, Heat
With Halloween looming, there's no better time to curl up with something truly spooky - and The Lost Village is certainly that ... [a] sinister tale
Lancashire Evening Post
Brimming with suspense and ghostly apparitions, Spring's scorching thriller moves at a cracking pace and with a stunning twist in its devil's tail, this is the perfect reading companion for the witching hours of winter.
