This is my first Barbara Erskine novel. It is a story about Emma Dickson who is drawn to a cottage in the woods and decides to move there alone. Piers is living in London and because of his job does not want a long commute. The cottage is haunted by Liza, the herbalist. Emma turns to the rector for help but he is in the grip of something inexplicable and dangerous. This was a story of good versus evil and races to a heart-stepping climax. I enjoyed the story very much and will now be looking to read other Erskine books. They are a great escape from mystery books that I normally read. If you enjoy books about ghosts and witches then you will love this book.
