A chilling and uproarious punk rock love letter to Gothic horror, in which a woman clashes with an ancient English manor, hell bent on upholding tradition. Perfect for fans of Grady Hendrix and Rachel Harrison.Following the death of her husband, Sandra Riley is left all but destitute: jobless, penniless and about to lose her home. But an encounter with an old university friend seems to offer a lifeline. Gerry McManus was always well-to-do; now he’s risen to join the landed gentry, as his wife Joy takes possession of her aristocratic family’s remote, dilapidated but undeniably impressive stately home: Hautmond Hall.Accepting Gerry’s invitation, Sandra arrives at the house intending to gather her thoughts, face her grief and plan her next move. But life at Hautmond isn’t so simple. Why is she having such dreadful dreams? Why do visitors to the house keep suffering inexplicable accidents? What’s hidden in the secret room buried deep in the lightless cellar? And who are the distant, shadowed figures she keeps glimpsing in the mirrors?As the truth about Hautmond Hall begins to reveal itself, Sandra finds herself trapped inside a waking nightmare. And if she is going to survive, she’s going to have to put her trust in the most unlikely of places.A love letter to the power of punk, The Cracks is an uproariously funny, and delightfully scary novel about rebellion, class and a middle finger to wealth and privilege.
