They say only the brave ride Bridles Lane at night. Vicar Richard Dodge speaks of ghosts and demons, conducting elaborate exorcisms in his churchyard overlooking the lane. And with the villagers sheltering in fear, local smugglers carry their haul up the road to be hidden in the safety of the church. Isaac and Scarlett Bailey have spent their lives hiding contraband in Talland church. Forced into free trade by their father's mistakes, they want nothing more than to escape the smuggling syndicate and build a life above the law.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 22
English settler Grace Ashwell flees an abusive lover in Hobart Town, with six-year-old Violet in tow. In her head, escape is easy: find work in the northern settlements and earn enough for passage home to London. But the terrain beyond the settled districts is wilder than Grace could ever have imagined. She and Violet find themselves lost in a beautiful but deadly land where rain thunders down mountains, the earth drops away without warning and night brings impenetrable darkness.

Story4 out of 5 stars 641
Honoring the wish of her late grandmother, Maura Donovan visits the small Irish village where her Gran was born-though she never expected to get bogged down in a murder mystery. Nor had she planned to take a job in one of the local pubs, but she finds herself excited to get to know the people who knew her Gran. In the pub, she's swamped with drink orders as everyone in town gathers to talk about the recent discovery of a nearly 100-year-old body in a nearby bog.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 80
Psychic medium Addison Lockhart jolts awake, her brow sweaty, head throbbing. The dream had seemed so real. The twins, 11-year-olds Vivian and Grace, were so full of life that she wanted to reach out, touch them. But she couldn't. The girls had been dead for 40 years. Why, then, had they appeared to her, summoning her help? Were their untimely deaths really an accident, or was something far more sinister to blame?

Publisher's Summary
Cornwall, England, 1726.
Isaac Bailey returns home after four years at sea, expecting a welcome from his family. Instead, he finds his parents' graves and his sister, Scarlett, waiting to be rescued from the orphanage.
Against his will, Isaac is thrust into a world of smuggling, forced into the service of wealthy syndicate boss Charles Reuben.
"Prove yourself trustworthy," says Flora, the witch's daughter, "and the chance for escape will come."
But as Isaac sets about gaining Reuben's trust, he unwittingly draws Scarlett and Flora into his dangerous world of midnight landings. The harder he tries to pull them from the smugglers' net, the harder they are entangled.
Find out where it all began in this short story prequel to the West Country Trilogy, set 14 years before the events of audiobook one.

Really enjoyed it
Really enjoyed this 18th century smuggling historical fiction short story set in South West England.
Grabbed me from the beginning and didn’t let me go.
Looking forward to reading book one in the series.
