About The Book
A new historical chiller from terrifying pen of Catherine Cavendish...
Evil runs deep at Mordenhyrst Hall…
When Grace first sets eyes on the imposing Gothic Mordenhyrst Hall, she is struck with an overwhelming sense that something doesn’t want her there. Her fiancé’s sister heads a coterie of Bright Young Things whose frivolous lives hide a sinister intent. Simon, Grace’s fiancé, is not the man she fell in love with, and the local villagers eye her with suspicion that borders on malevolence.
Her friend, Coralie, possesses the ability to communicate with powerful spirits. She convinces Grace of her own paranormal gifts – gifts Grace will need to draw deeply on as the secrets of Mordenhyrst Hall begin to unravel.

Raves and Reviews
'Cavendish breathes new life into familiar horror tropes in this spine-tingling tale of past and present colliding.'
– Publishers Weekly on In Darkness, Shadows Breathe
'A compelling, immersive, and intense time-slip horror novel with sympathetic characters that readers actively root for. The tale reads like The Devil in Silver by Victor LaValle if it were written by Sarah Pinborough.'
– Library Journal on In Darkness, Shadows Breathe
"Those Who Dwell in Mordenhyrst Hall is a very strong work of Gothic horror and may be Cavendish’s best book so far."
