The Observation Tower (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When disgraced astronomer Dr Helena Roth accepts a quiet posting at Ash Fell Observatory, she hopes for obscurity, not discovery. Perched above the Cumbrian village of Dentmere, the Edwardian dome hasn't recorded a viable signal in decades.

But on her first night, Helena sees a star that shouldn't exist - a blue light near Perseus that moves closer with every observation. Villagers whisper of lost hours and clocks that skip entire nights. Old photographic plates show the same star hovering where the observatory now stands. And within the telescope's lens, something begins to breathe.

As the skies above Dentmere thicken with storms and static, Helena's data - and her own memories - start to unravel. The act of watching becomes reciprocal. The star is no longer out there. It's here.

Autorenporträt

A. R. Hurst is an independent author of horror, crime, and psychological thrillers, with a passion for exploring the darkest corners of the human mind. Whether it is a tale steeped in terror, a crime that refuses to stay buried, or a thriller where every page twists the knife, Hurst's work always circles back to the psychology of fear, guilt, and obsession.

A firm believer that a good setting sets the pace for a story, Hurst crafts worlds where atmosphere and place are as alive as the characters themselves. Each setting becomes a silent witness or an accomplice to the secrets, betrayals, and revelations that drive the narrative forward.

Drawn to writing from an early age, Hurst found a home in dark fiction, the kind of stories that linger after the lights go out and challenge readers to question what they would do under impossible circumstances. Influenced by both classic horror and contemporary psychological thrillers, Hurst blends atmosphere, tension, and character-driven storytelling to create narratives that feel as unsettling as they are compelling.

When not writing, Hurst is usually reading widely across genres, dissecting films for their storytelling craft, playing tennis, or diving deep into the immersive worlds of RPG games. Always chasing stories in books, on screen, or in gameplay, Hurst draws inspiration from the spaces where imagination and reality collide. Living by the belief that the scariest monsters are often human, Hurst continues to craft stories that hold up a mirror to the choices we make and the consequences we cannot escape.
