Ghost Of Blacklode by Gordon John

Ghost Of Blacklode by Gordon John

A thrilling and intriguing ghost story by a master of the genre. Written over four hundred years ago by the murdered young master of Blacklode Hall, Randal's Pledge is said to contain clues to the whereabouts of his hidden fortune. But it's a more contemporary mystery that's concerning Bill Brock - namely Charlotte Brundish. Angry and aloof, she seems to have no interest in Bill, until a chance meeting in town and the discovery of a magical amulet throws the two together in a way they'd never have imagined. Danger stalks them, though, in the shape of the sinister, unscrupulous Mrs Gosse. She's on the trail of Randal's treasure too, and is prepared to summon the Hound, a terrifying supernatural mandog, to make sure she gets it...
