Priory

The Ghosts of Hardacre, Book 1

De: Becky Wright

Narrado por: Henry Douthwaite

Memories are like ghosts. They linger in doorways, whisper with the howling wind when lightning strikes. They are the dark phantoms of my youth. My mind buried my memories for good reason, and I spent 40 years believing I could escape them.

Until with one phone call, I found myself in my childhood home: Hardacre Priory.

I knew from the first step through the door that it was all over. The forgotten events of 1979 leapt to the surface and screamed their truths. Everything I thought to be true was a lie.

Entering those halls was an open invitation.... Not for me, but for every ill wish, vengeful thought, and dark deed that ever existed.

I was captivated from the start.

I recently had the opportunity to listen to the Priory and I must say I was captivated from the start. I had read Priory a year ago and loved it. That being said, the audible has taken the story to a whole new level for me. Henry Douthwaite is perfect as narrator for this story. His telling of Priory gives this world of credence and adds an atmospheric nuance to the story. Listening as the the story unfolded was like having my glass of wine and chocolate too. Book or audio? The choice is yours.


Every once in awhile I crave to walk on the dark side for which I’m glad Becky Wright is there to provide me with excellent choices. I have come to expect the very best from Wright. All of her books exude with a wide range of vibes.

The chills and goosebumps are there causing me to occasionally glance around…what was that? Priory is a slow chiller with a simmering pace which will immerse you most unexpectedly. I found myself gripping the book in a death grip…tethering me in place.

The story is well constructed with complex characters both real and otherwise. Wright has a knack for slowly building characters, giving them substance and layers upon layers. The story is twisty, going back and fourth from past to present and back again till it all comes together and sinking in…OMG!

Gothic horror is not my go to read so why do I find myself settling in for an evening of reading with one of Becky Wright’s books? Because they are imaginative and tantalizing reads. I obviously love Wright’s style of Gothic creepy horror because I keep coming back for more.

A SHOCKING ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
