About this listen

David Ash, detective of the paranormal, is sent to the mysterious Comraich Castle, secluded deep in the Scottish countryside, to investigate a strange, high-profile case. A man has been found crucified in a locked room. The reports suggest that the cliff-top castle is being haunted.... Who or what is the reclusive hooded figure that Ash has seen from the window walking across the courtyard in the dead of night? What are the strange, animal-like sounds that come from the surrounding woods? And why are the castle's inhabitants so reluctant to talk about what they have seen? What Ash eventually discovers is truly shocking....

Featuring one of Herbert's best-loved characters, first encountered in The Ghosts of Sleath and Haunted, Ash is a ghost story like no other that will chill you to the marrow.

Average and lacking suspence

The story itself is okay, but quite underwhelming. Minimal horror and limited action with too many side chapters introducing the various characters and their backstory. Possibly my least favourite Herbert book. Still an okay, average, listen though.

Best story yet

Ash is brilliantly written and well narrated, compelling story. So well written you'd think it actually happened.
