Produktbeschreibung

On the outskirts of London, 1855, mortician and funeral director Helena Morrigan struggles with her limited finances and the heavy burdens of her past. Desperate to secure herself, she takes up residence in an aged house closer to the graveyard, closer to the lost souls that sense her torment and are determined to take her place in the mortal world. As she tries to tame and free the ghostly figures around her, she becomes acquainted with the owners of the home, the recently orphaned siblings, Eric, Audrey and Christian Tarter. Yet, the souls she wants to save are on edge as a horrific serial killer runs rampant, giving Helena a boost in business and suspicion. Against her best efforts, Helena is suddenly thrown into a bloody mystery where new and old friendships are tested, innocents are maimed and a horrific family secret that threatens her chance at a peaceful existence and her existence itself.

Autorenporträt

Claire Smith is a debut memoirist whose work explores the complexities of family, identity, and the hidden truths that shape our lives. Born and raised in a quiet suburban town in the early 1980s, Claire spent her childhood surrounded by a world that appeared idyllic on the surface but was shadowed by secrets she would later uncover. With a talent for weaving vivid imagery and deep emotional resonance into her writing, Claire draws readers into her journey of discovery, resilience, and self-reclamation.Her first memoir, my father's last victim, is a poignant reflection on the fragility of perfection and the courage it takes to confront the past. Inspired by her personal experiences, Claire's work captures both the beauty and the pain of growing up in a family defined by both love and mystery. When she's not writing, Claire enjoys exploring forgotten attics, collecting vintage photographs, and spending time with her two dogs, Milo and Daisy.
