Lilac Ink

Some houses remember. Some books refuse to let their authors go.

​

Seeking inspiration for her postgraduate dissertation, Jess Wilby escapes to the secluded riverside home of her godmother, the acclaimed novelist Rosamond Hale. But the house seems to hold more than memories. As forgotten manuscripts emerge and her own writing takes on a life she cannot explain, Jess is drawn into a mystery where creativity, identity and the past become dangerously entwined. Is Jess uncovering the legacy of a great author—or becoming entangled in something far older than literature itself?

​

Lilac Ink is an atmospheric literary mystery infused with the uncanny—a novel about stories that outlive their creators, and the price of finding your own voice.
