The Ones Who Never Left by Gabrielle Mullarkey
In this gothic thriller, newlyweds Hugh and Lucy become property guardians of 'haunted' Rook House in rural Yorkshire. Stalked by the childhood traumas that drew them together, the young couple regard the house as a haven to rekindle their creative sparks - until they begin to see and hear what they can't explain.Readers love Gabrielle's fiction for its range - whether atmospheric mood pieces or contemporary slices of life, all revolve around imaginatively twisty plots packed with sassy dialogue, characters you feel you know and "I didn't see that coming!" moments'

'She offers a witty and irreverent insight into the
nitty gritty of life.'
Helen Murray, The Irish News
'In selecting her as the winner, we were particularly impressed by her originality and inventiveness, the quality of her writing and her ability to "show not tell".'

I was an avid reader long before I wrote a word. Then I became a journalist and gradually moved from writing features to writing fiction!
Now I've written several novels and had more than 3,000 short stories and serials published in magazines worldwide.
Perhaps because I spent my early childhood in a remote manor house in rural Ireland, I've long had a fascination with grippingly dark gothic tales.
A few years ago, I gained an MSc in Creative Writing for Therapeutic Purposes. I think that my experience facilitating workshops in this area has helped to make my fiction as human as it is haunting.
My writing has been broadcast on radio, adapted for audio downloads and has won or been shortlisted in writing competitions.
