The White Devil

The Dead Poet's Society/Secret History meets The Turn of the Screw - a campus novel that is also a haunting ghost story.

Andrew Taylor is sent by his father to spend his final year at the prestigious public school Harrow. It is an eccentric place, a rambling ancient building filled with England's elite and entrenched in its past, with traditions that date back hundreds of years.

This is where his troubles begin.

Before long Andrew senses a malevolent presence haunting his footsteps. Jokes are made about 'The Lot Ghost' but when a classmate dies and Andrew spots a white figure bending over the corpse, the ghost suddenly becomes all too real. Soon another classmate falls ill and Andrew finds himself increasingly drawn into a nightmare...
