This edition of The Moorstone Sickness (1982) features a new introduction by Mark Morris.

Why does such a small town need such a large insane asylum? Why do the village’s elderly residents leave everything they own to young newcomers they barely know? And why is everyone so friendly, so handsome, and so preoccupied with Hal and Rowan’s health?īefore the Grahams can piece the insidious puzzle together, they are plunged into a spiralling terror of ancient mysteries reborn, people who are not quite what they seem, and a village that is quaint, charming – and deadly! ? Lying beneath a hill capped by an enormous stone, Moorstone hides mysterious secrets. And the rustic village of Moorstone seems perfect.
