Hangingstone A J Kirby

'Hangingstone' is a supernatural tale of madness, motherhood, and revenge. Set on the wild Yorkshire moorland near Ilkley, it is the story of one mother's desperate attempts to reconcile herself with the (ghostly) child who was taken from her many years ago. Hangingstone Rocks are two monoliths of millstone grit which look out upon the seemingly idyllic town of Ilkley, a place which has stored up a wealth of terrible memories, particularly in its treatment of our less than fortunate mother, who returns to the rocks again and again in order to try and find a way back into the past, to the moment her child was taken away from her. By the Amazon top-selling dark fiction author of 'Bully', 'Sharkways', 'Paint this town Red', 'The Black Book', and 'The Haunting of Annie Nicol'.
