Astaroth

Anton fakes hauntings. Tom debunks them. Beliefs are tested when both men take on the same haunted house. Anton and Tom are ghost hunters. Anton does not believe in ghosts but has made a fortune from the beliefs of others as host of a popular ghost-hunting TV show. Tom has been a believer since a paranormal encounter in his childhood and yet his passion for facts and genuine evidence has become a barrier against financial success. Because of a misunderstanding, troubled tattoo artist Coralie Westerly has hired both men to investigate the house she has inherited from her father, which she believes to be haunted. During a single day of unimaginable terror, Coralie realises that the explosive conflict between the two very different ghost-hunters may cause more harm than the ghosts ever would. Some secrets are better left buried. Astaroth is the first in a series of standalone horror novels connected only by their unusual narrator, mortuary assistant Coralie Westerly. If you like spine-chilling supernatural horror stories like Stolen Tongues or The Haunting of Hill House, then you won't want to miss this book.
