Title: Haunted Houses: Two Novels from Charlotte Riddell Author: Charlotte Riddell Narrator: David Thorpe Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 34 minutes Release date: February 1, 2022 Genres: Paranormal Publisher's Summary: From the once-popular yet unfairly neglected Victorian writer Charlotte Riddell comes a pair of novels which cleverly upholster the familiar furniture of the haunted house story. In 'An Uninhabited House', the hauntings are seen through the perspective of the solicitors who hold the deed of the property. Here we find a shrewd comedic skewering of this host of scriveners and clerks, as slowly the safer world of commerce and law gives way and an encounter with the supernatural becomes more and more unavoidable. In 'Fairy Water', Riddell again subverts the expectations of the reader, suggesting a complex moral character for her haunting spirit. Her writing style is succinct and witty, rendering the story a spirited and approachable read despite its age.
