Ghosts of Thores-Cross:
Book 1: The Haunting of Thores-Cross: A Yorkshire Ghost Story
When a vulnerable young girl is ostracised within her community and accused of witchcraft, the descendants of her neighbours will suffer for centuries to come.
"The ghost of a wronged young woman in the village of Thores-Cross waits 230 years to have her story told in Perkins's suspenseful and atmospheric first Yorkshire Ghost novel ... This historical ghost story provides page-turning chills and sympathy for scorned women" – The BookLife Prize by Publishers Weekly
Cursed: A Ghosts of Thores-Cross Short Story
Jennet's back. No one's safe.
A skeleton is dug up at the crossing of the ways on Hanging Moor, striking dread into the heart of Old Ma Ramsgill - the elderly matriarch of the village of Thruscross. And with good reason. The eighteenth-century witch, Jennet, has been woken.
"Wow, that was a great creepy story!"
Ghosts of Knaresborough:
Book 1: Knight of Betrayal: A Medieval Haunting
A haunting historical novel of murder and betrayal in medieval England, Knight of Betrayal will plunge you into the vibrant and deadly world of medieval England, Henry II, Thomas Becket - and four murderous knights.
"A pacy, page-turning ghost story with a twisted difference! A must read."
Ghosts of Haworth:
Book 1: Parliament of Rooks
Parliament of Rooks contrasts the beautiful, inspiring village of Haworth today with the slum – or rookery – it was during the industrial revolution: rife with disease, heartache, poverty, and child slavery in the mills.
"Lush and atmospheric, this novel is dark and moody with supernatural elements and accurate historical details." - The BookLife Prize by Publishers Weekly
