This is my first time reading anything by this author and I was very impressed by the writing . In this book we meet Daniel , he is poor , a hard worker , a decent human being and all round good guy , you are rooting for him from the start , unfortunately he lives with his creep of a cousin who upon closer inspection is just as much of an idiot as I first thought if not more so .
When he gets a mysterious letter from a stranger after a spat of hard luck it could be just what he needs to make a fresh start and he wisely takes that opportunity.
The setting for the story is Craven Manor and it’s surrounding land , the place is deeply unnerving as it has not had a resident living there or taking care of its grounds in many years . The manor itself is an imposing building and the grounds are largely overrun and in need of some serious hard work and Daniel is the person requested for the job .
I loved the mystery of this haunted place , who was his employer , why was his conditions of employment so rigid , this all added lovey layers of unease and tension especially in the parts of the plot that took place at night there . If you enjoy. Good mystery then I would recommend this without a doubt.
