Step into the chilling darkness of Victorian England with Mary, a woman born into the bleak confines of the workhouse. As she navigates the harsh and hostile environment, Mary discovers within herself inexplicable abilities to see beyond the veil of the mundane. In the dead of night, amidst coffin-like beds and sinister shadows, she encounters vengeful spirits and haunting demons. But fate is not done with Mary yet.
Forced to return to the workhouse with her two children, she faces the ire of the Master, who sees her as a threat to order. Cast out onto the unforgiving streets, Mary's only hope lies in an unexpected encounter with Charles, owner of the prestigious Royal Theatre. Embracing a new life on the stage, Mary delves into the decadent underbelly of Victorian society, where debauchery reigns supreme. Yet, amidst the glamour and intrigue of theatreland, Mary's heart yearns for her lost boys.
As she treads the boards and wades through the murky depths of her new world, she finds herself drawn into a sinister web of vengeful spirits and dark secrets. Will Mary's performances lead her to the reunion she seeks, or will the chill of the supernatural consume her and her dreams? Prepare for a tale where the stage is set for vengeance and the macabre, where the line between reality and nightmare blurs with each passing act.

Biographie de E.M.G Wixley

Elizabeth Wixley was born in Hertfordshire in the United Kingdom but has moved many times during her childhood. She attended the Camberwell Art School and joined a design studio in Convent Garden. Moving to Bristol, some years later, she worked full time for the Local Education Authority supporting children suffering from emotional and behavioural difficulties, whilst ensuring that the transition into a mainstream school was done in a supportive and nurturing manner.
Whilst providing children with a safe haven for learning, she raised two sons as a single parent while studying for a degree in education at the University of the West of England. Her love of fiction started at the age of six when Elizabeth's grandmother died of cancer and to ensure that the rest of the family was safe, she would spend the nights roaming the house looking for the 'C' monster to make sure that he did not claim any more victims.
One sunny bright day, her sister told her that fork lightning would come and strike her down after which she would spend her days hiding in the garage and when she heard that the sun was falling out of the sky, well needless to say, she very seldom ventured out. With trial and error, Elizabeth soon realized to fight her foes, she had to stare them straight in the eye, explore them and conqueror the inner demons in order to stand righteous.
This helps fuel her love of horror and the many mysteries of the world. Creating a why and what if scenario that runs prominent in her fascinating fiction. Throughout Elizabeth's life, creative arts have been her passion whether it is visiting galleries, painting or writing. She enjoys nothing more than sharing a compelling horror story with others and holding the sanity of her readers in the palm of her hand.
