by M. a. Knights (Author) Mr Gout had not told me everything. That became clear the first night I arrived to take up my position as his apprentice. Paranormal investigation is not quite what Clementine Trussel was expecting. Abermwyl, the small Welsh fishing village she now calls home, is hardly a hub of excitement. Worse still, her welcome has been less than warm. Mr Gout seems distracted, and his ancient housekeeper, one Mrs Winchester, has made it abundantly clear she is not happy with Clementine's presence. But strange events are about to unfold in the sleepy village. A tragic shipwreck brings a mysterious stranger to shore. A madman.
