About the Book
"USA Today bestseller and rising queen of atmospheric horror Darcy Coates returns with a ghost story that will haunt you long after the final page. Keira is ready for a normal life. Hunted and haunted, all she wants is to put her mysterious past behind her and move forward with her new friends as Blighty Graveyard's groundskeeper. But then she receives an invitation to dinner at the local recluse's crumbling ancestral estate. The mansion is steeped in history that is equal parts complicated and bloody-and at its center is the man who once tried to kill her, now begging for her help. Dane Crispin believes his home is haunted-and that the unquiet dead clawing through the ancient house are after him. Unnerved but intrigued, Keira opens her second sight and discovers he's right: resentful specters cling to Dane...and if she can't find a way to stop them, threaten to consume everything in their path. There's something dark happening in the world beyond most peoples' vision, and if Keira isn't able to sever the ties between the living and the dead, the chained spirits may not be the only things twisted beyond saving"--Book Synopsis
"In the third installment of her Gravekeeper series, [Darcy] Coates raises the stakes...worried that someone may be using an army of the undead to take over the world? Coates has your number."--Kirkus Reviews
When the dead refuse to stay silent, Keira can no longer outrun her past. Hoping for peace as the new cemetery groundskeeper in Blighty, she's pulled back into danger by an urgent plea from Dane Crispin--the very man who once tried to kill her. His ancestral mansion is overrun by vengeful spirits, and only Keira's rare gift can hope to stop them before their rage threatens everyone she's come to care about.
Inside the decaying estate, Keira faces darkness that clings to people as much as to places. As she navigates tangled secrets, buried betrayals, and the thin line between trust and survival, she's forced to confront not just ghosts but her own fears and the bonds she's built with her chosen family.
A pulse-pounding blend of supernatural thriller and cozy horror, The Twisted Dead is perfect for fans of ghost mysteries with heart, atmospheric suspense, and heroines who refuse to give up hope--even when the world is at its darkest.
