A dead man. A missing woman. A haunted cottage. A secret hidden for 30 years....

In 1988 a famous record producer took his own life and a woman vanished after attending a party at Crow’s Cottage.

When the cottage’s owner passes away decades later, the property falls into the hands of his nephew, who finds a strange box hidden there. It is a replica of an infamous occult device called the Mephisto Arcane. In the wake of its discovery come sightings of an apparition. The crew of the paranormal TV show Where the Dead Walk are invited to investigate the haunting.

They are about to find the past guards its secrets jealously, and that unlocking them has consequences.

Good enough to listen to while at the gym

The story was ok, nothing original. The first book was actually better. I hoped to have Kate Bennett come back in this one. Disappointed she didn’t. Overall it’s an okay book.

Brilliant ghost hunting

I was given a code for this book by the author.
Well written and performed, as are all of John Bowen’s Books.

Crows Cottage
Fabulous! Investigations of “Where the Dead Walk” continue with a new mystery within a mystery where pasts and secrets are uncovered. Missing people, bodies, a magician and a body. Brilliant!

Haunting Mystery

Crow's Cottage by John Bowen really pulled me in. I enjoyed this sequel to Where the Dead Walk. Some characters from the first book are highlighted in this one, but the story itself is a standalone. I found both the mystery and supernatural elements to be compelling. The twist at the end was awesome! Helen Clapp was amazing bringing the characters to life with her performance. I could hear who was speaking, which adds to the book.

Good Mystery

Enjoyed it but slow moving at times. To many unnecessary characters mucking up the story

Great stand alone with in the series!

This was a really good audiobook. The character development was great and there were plenty of twists and turns to keep the reader glued to the story! I have not read the first though I most certainly will now!
The narration was great and the story flowed smoothly.

Not worth the price and time .

Both the story and the performance are about on a par with The Hallmark Christmas Channel Schlock !

Way too much unnecessary information

This would have been a much shorter book if the author had not included each character's life story from birth to current. Information that did not move the story forward was explained in great detail. So very much unnecessary information. Who care how the medium met his ex years ago? What does that do for the story? How does it help the plot move along? It doesn't. Just increased the word count.
