About this book
Arthur Kipps, a young solicitor, is sent from London to settle the papers of a reclusive widow in a bleak coastal village. At the isolated house beyond the marshes, cut off by sea mist and a treacherous causeway, he glimpses a silent woman dressed in black—and finds the locals unwilling to explain her presence. As Arthur pieces together a history of grief, secrecy, and vengeance, routine legal work becomes an increasingly claustrophobic haunting. Spare, elegant, and deeply atmospheric, this is a classic ghost story with mounting dread and a lingeringly melancholy mood.
