Overview: “Slowly, and not without a certain inexplicable feeling of foreboding, I limped up the weed-grown gravel path to the door of Cliff House . . .” John Montrolfe, malformed and malevolent, the latest inheritor of the family curse, has come to England to claim his ancestral inheritance. He is grudgingly admitted to the Gothic mansion by a toothless old crone, and night after night his dreams are haunted by the phantom image of a beautiful young maiden. When he reaches out to touch the girl, the spectre’s head falls grotesquely to one side and she vanishes as he awakes in horror.Montrolfe happens upon a secret drawer containing an old journal, written by the girl whose ghost has haunted him. In its pages a strange and horrible story unfolds, a tale of murder and buried treasure, a story that will finally reveal young Pippin’s terrible fate and the origin of the Curse of the Montrolfes . . .
A spellbinding Gothic page-turner, Rohan O’Grady’s Pippin’s Journal (1962) received rave reviews on its initial publication and returns to print at last to enchant and terrify a new generation of readers.
