Dancing Jax by Robin Jarvis

At the end of a track, on the outskirts of an ordinary coastal town, lies a dilapidated house. Once, a group of amateur ghost hunters spent the night there. Two of them don’t like to speak about the experience. The third can’t speak about it… literally. Down in the basement lie a box of children’s books, books you should never touch, books you should never start, books you should certainly never read out loud… A brilliant supernatural thriller with a modern twist. Creepy and chilling – keep the lights on for this one!
