Synopsis

A game that turns to a nightmare ...

Non Omnis Moriar
I shall not altogether die

A young boy watches his mother die. A sadistic man dies in agony. Drunk students play with a Ouija board in a damp cellar. Can bricks and mortar retain imprints of the emotions experienced within them?

Frannie is delighted when a chance meeting with a handsome man and his son leads to a romance. The fact that the relationship is marred by gruesome tragedies, she dismisses as an unsettling coincidence. But eventually she can no longer ignore the fact that she is the only thing linking these horrible events. Is it a murderous practical joke?

Or worse...?

Goodreads review by Mark

This is one of Peter's earlier stand alone thrillers that looks into supernatural topics such as the risks of using Ouija boards, and buildings/locations having memories of what has happened within them.

I gave this book a full 5 stars because it was good. It did grab me from the start but I must admit the first chapter could have been absorbed later into the book as a short explanation by the related character concerned.

Starts with a bang that might put off some readers but keep going - the rest of the book is not like that! But the start is important. It's all to do with coincidence - is there such a thing......more
