Death has come twice to Ravenbank, a remote community in
England’s Lake District, each time on Hallowe’en. Just
before the First World War, a young woman’s corpse was
found, with a makeshift shroud frozen to her battered face.
Her ghost – the Faceless Woman – is said to walk through
Ravenbank on Hallowe-en. Five years ago, another woman,
Katya Moss, was murdered, and again her face was covered to
hide her injuries. Daniel Kind, a specialist in the history
of murder, becomes fascinated by the old cases, and wonders
whether the obvious suspects really did commit the crimes.
He spends Hallowe’en at a party in Ravenbank – only to find
death returning to this beautiful but isolated spot. Once
more, the victim is a woman, once more her damaged face is
shrouded from view.
