'No one chills the heart like Susan Hill.'
The Daily Telegraph

The chilling tale of a man in the grip of a small, invisible hand ... an exceptional and bestselling ghost story.

Late one summer evening, antiquarian bookseller Adam Snow is returning from a client visit when he takes a wrong turn. He stumbles across a derelict Edwardian house, and compelled by curiosity, approaches the door. Standing before the entrance, he feels the unmistakable sensation of a small cold hand creeping into his own, 'as if a child had taken hold of it'. At first he is merely puzzled by the odd incident but then begins to suffer attacks of fear and panic, and is visited by nightmares. He is determined to learn more about the house and its once-magnificent, now overgrown garden but when he does so, he receives further, increasingly sinister, visits from the small hand.

'A beautiful volume housing a chilling take on the good old-fashioned ghost story.'
Red Magazine

'A classic ghost story with the same combination of charm and chill which characterised The Woman in Black.'
The Independent on Sunday
