Poor Jacky

When bestselling author Paul Beecroft returns to his home town to give a talk, he stirs up memories of his youth, when three of his contemporaries went missing in mysterious and violent circumstances. Beecroft's presence also disturbs a supernatural presence as he sets out to discover the story of a sad little boy from 200 years in the past. This spooky tale has horror and humour in equal measure as Paul uncovers the secrets of Dedley Hall
