Thank goodness she did, because barely a week later Nell disappears, and Rachel is left to put together the pieces of the puzzle.Looking for answers, Rachel travels to lonely Blackstone Fell in Yorkshire, with its eerie moor and sinister tower. With help from her friend Jacob Flint – who's determined to expose a fraudulent clairvoyant – Rachel will risk her life to bring an end to the disappearances and bring the truth to light.A dazzling mystery peopled by clerics and medics; journalists and judges, Blackstone Fell explores the shadowy borderlands between spiritual and scientific; between sanity and madness; and between virtue and deadly sin.Praise for Martin Edwards:'Martin Edwards celebrates and satirises the genre with wit and affection... He leaves you wanting more.' The Times 'A pitch-perfect blend of Golden Age charm and sinister modern suspense.' Lee Child 'Edwards has managed, brilliantly, to combine a Golden Age setting with a pace that is bang up-to-date.' Peter James
