What would you give to undo the past?
"A writer of dazzling talent." - Amanda Craig
"A wonderful writer." - Ann Morgan
Four strangers. One liminal ferry. A final chance to choose love over regret.
When time stands still aboard a midnight Isle of Wight ferry, four passengers find their fates tragically bound together. Overseen by a cryptic ticket collector, they face a staggering choice: find the courage to embrace the love and responsibility they once fled, or remain trapped by their past forever. Two passengers are allowed to return. Can they undo the past? And on a vessel caught between worlds, who is fighting for their future-and who is already a ghost?
Almost a Ghost Story is a beautifully crafted speculative mystery about the enduring power of love, the haunting cost of a life half-lived, and the secrets we keep from ourselves.
Praise for Emily Bullock:
Startlingly original and poetic-Bullock combines horror and brutality with unexpected moments of tenderness.
- Observer
The voice she gives to Norris as memories and delusions meld in his disintegrating mind is a haunting one.
