From seeking ghosts to being sought by them, the stories in this collection adopt a variety of narrative styles and range through time from the ancient world to the present, from high summer to the mists and darkness of autumn and winter. Tales include a holiday-maker's visit to a remote archaeological site of the ancient Romans, and winter weekends and autumn nights where events take an unexpected turn in a contemporary city. Characters as varied as a surveyor at a supposedly empty house, a traveller arriving at an infrequently-used Victorian country station, and a group of smugglers all have unnerving encounters. The collection reflects the diversity of ghost stories. In these stories can be found elements of uncertainty, loneliness, fear, pity, compassion, obsession and disbelief, in the classic mix of the supernatural and the psychological.
