THE VISITORS BOOK

In this small but perfectly formed collection of supernatural short stories, Sop
hie Hannah takes the comforting scenes of everyday life and imbues them with a f
risson of fear, then a gust of terror. Why is a young woman so unnerved by the p
resence of a visitors book in her boyfriend's inner-city home? And whose spidery
handwriting is it that fills the pages? Who is the strangely courteous boy stil
l lingering at a child's tenth birthday party when all the parents have gathered
their children and left? And why does the presence of a perfectly ordinary woma
n in a post office queue leave another customer pallid and sweating with fear? B
eware what you open this Christmas!
