The Persistent Dead

The Persistent Dead is a collection of sixteen stories of supernatural mystery, written in the vein of the classic English ghost story. From the deceptive tranquillity of the English countryside to the sun-drenched Mediterranean coast, Central European ruins to the jungles of Southeast Asia, these tales take you on a journey through the sinister reaches of the human imagination. Here you will encounter haunted castles, witches, mermaids, ominous snowmen, and other things more horrific - though nothing is ever quite as it seems.

Inspired by the masters of the genre, such as M. R. James and John Buchan, from its heyday in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, N. W. Kit has revived this literary tradition for a latter-day audience."
