About Christmas Ghosts and the Holly Queen 

My new work of fiction features the same main character as Erosion, my first Gothic novel. In the new book, a group of friends seek the joys of Christmas past in an idyllic remote cottage but discover the spectres of bygone times lurk there too. It’s about friendship, folklore and telling ghost stories.

Christmas Ghosts and the Holly Queen is a complete story so you don’t need to have read Erosion before you begin. However, the main character, Alice, sometimes briefly refers to things that happened in the earlier novel. I’m indicating when a spoiler appears so you can skip those paragraphs if you want to. You might choose to read Erosion first so you don’t need to avoid spoilers, or you might want to read this freebie to see whether buying Erosion is something you want to do.
