Imagine you lose your mind... and something's waiting to take its place. Isobel Hickey's husband, Richard, was intense, exciting and crazy, and she wants him back. But she can't have him: he died two years ago in circumstances she can't bear to remember. Now, she must keep going for her teenage children, Ben and Melissa, and her dog, Brodie. But how can she when nothing makes sense anymore? When she's haunted by ghostly footprints in the snow, and a sinister stranger who knows too much about her? When a mute old woman speaks from her death-bed, Isobel is plunged into terrifying danger, a nightmare chain of frightening events where Richard's secrets lurk and threaten her sanity. Now she must fight to save her children from an insidious evil she doesn't understand. She must uncover who, or what, is haunting her. But is she strong enough or will she succumb to its malevolent desire? "Compellingly readable, Fitful Head is a suspenseful and thrilling ghost story for our times."
