Welcome to Shewstone House Hotel. One of those quiet places. An oasis of calm to escape the stresses and anxieties of modern living. Where a non-paying guest waits for his next victim . . . BAFTA-winning writer Stephen Volk outraged the critics with his first screenplay, Ken Russell's GOTHIC, and shocked an unsuspecting nation with his notorious BBC TV Halloween hoax GHOSTWATCH. His gripping supernatural drama series AFTERLIFE was called "Terrific television" (The Guardian) and "Unmissable" (Mail on Sunday). VARDOGER is his long new novella and it's fully as cunning and frightening as any of his previous work . . .
