Exit, pursued by death
Willis, Keira2024
Book
1987. Manchester's obscure cold-case department - the Ballroom - is once again thrust into a spine-chilling investigation. Lady Bancroft's Rose is a play with a grim history: three mysterious deaths during opening night performances in the city's theatres since 1922. When the director of a new production seeks the Ballroom's help, DI Andrew Joyce's eclectic team plunge into tales of a cursed play and a sinister entity known as the Shadow Man. Joyce, still sceptical, dismisses such notions and sets out to prove that the cast's tormentor is merely human, but when reluctant 'consultant' Peggy Swan confirms that the production is being haunted, Joyce will need to put his doubts aside and once again trust Peggy's judgement; not only to protect the cast, but perhaps to save his own life too.
