The Chapel

Nestled in the quiet and remote Cornish village of Trellen, The Old Chapel should be the ideal holiday getaway; but it's not, for something is wrong with The Old Chapel. Very wrong.Desperate to find answers as to why a dark-robed figure stalks its rooms, and the tortured cries of infants echo through the building at night; owners Sue and Tom Reed call on the help of ex-police detective - turned private and paranormal investigator, Mike Cross and his team to find a rational explanation behind these seemingly unexplainable reports. Before the team get a chance to investigate the renovated seventeenth-century chapel; now an idyllic holiday let; eighteen-year-old Ellie Harrison and her five-year-old brother, Henry, vanish without a trace from the building in the middle of the night.Soon Mike Cross and his team find themselves embroiled in one of the strangest and most inexplicable missing persons cases of recent time, and in a race to unravel the dark and twisted past of The Old Chapel before they, Henry and Ellie become its next victims. Writing fiction has been of interest to me for as long as I can remember. One of my favourite things in school was when the teacher gave us free rein to write a fiction story of our choice, I actually found one of these that I'd received an A* for in my old student record of achievement file. It was strange reading it back, ten pages of A4 painfully scripted by hand in fountain pen. I am only thirty four years of age and ball point had obviously been invented, so god knows why I slogged it out in fountain pen, but I did.
