The sixth instalment in the Merrily Watkins series: Hereford's Diocesan Exorcist must encounter a legacy of evil within the crumbling walls of an old hotel along with memories of murder...

I absolutely loved this. For me it is the first modern book that I've found as satisfying as a Victorian novel. The layers, the characters, the humour, the spookiness - perfect. * Elly Griffiths *
