Showing results for "Bleak House" in Horror

London. A city drowning in fog. Amid that fog, a man with no name dies above a strange junkshop. Threads of mist and intrigue weave around a court case with no resolution, linking great country houses with the lowest slum in the city, mingling the high-born with a boy who sweeps the filthy streets, enshrouding devious plots and sudden murder, bringing together two extraordinary women – Lady Dedlock and Esther Summerson - who seem to have nothing whatsoever in common but who will find themselves inextricably linked.

New in the house, and rebutted by Mary Walker at every opportunity, Jennie experiences odd sounds and sightings in Abigail's room, and Abigail's constant preoccupation with the 'imaginary' birdman. Then there's the omnipresent stench of death seemingly emanating from the very ground beneath the house. The Walkers fob off her concerns and Jennie is left to solve the mysteries of the Bleak House alone and in a strange place.
