Items related to The Dead of Winter
After Michael's parents die, he is invited to stay with his guardian in a desolate country house. He begins to suspect something is not quite right on the day he arrives when he spots a mysterious woman out in the frozen mists. But little can prepare him for the solitude of the house itself. His guardian is rarely seen, and there's a malevolent force lurking in an old hallway mirror. As the chilling suspense builds, Michael realizes that the house and its grounds harbor many more secrets-both dead and alive.

About the Author:
Review:
Chris Priestley is the author of the spine-tingling Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror, Tales of Terror from the Black Ship and Mister Creecher. Chris is also an illustrator, painter, and cartoonist.
Praise for Tales of Terror from the Black Ship: `A fantastic page-turner, with a really scary ending' * Independent on Sunday * Praise for Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror: `Scare yourselves silly . . . recalls the best of Edward Gorey in wickedness and humour . . . Perfect for reading aloud' * Observer * Praise for Dead of Winyter: `A superb little ghost story . . . it's quite chilling, and has the capacity to give children a pleasingly good scare. It would make a great book for reading aloud over a series of nights' * SFX * `Open a Chris Priestley Gothic ghost story and what seeps from the pages, like mist from a desolate marsh, is his sheer love of the genre. This passion not only shapes a gripping story with well-rounded characters, but lifts the level of writing well above similar Victorian chillers . . . Deliciously creepy with lots of twists and turns to keep young readers on edge' * Daily Mail *
