Our summary description
As Independent Scottish booksellers, we write all of our descriptions personally, we hope you enjoy this one.
Ran McGhie is adrift. A struggling writer living with fragile mental health, he is unprepared for the revelation that his family history reaches deep into Glasgow’s merchant past. Stranger still, he has inherited Newton Hall, a vast and crumbling mansion left to him by a great uncle he never knew.
Inside the house, Ran finds rooms shaped by obsession. Books line the walls. Words seem to pulse through the building itself. For a poet searching for purpose, it feels like sanctuary. Yet the longer he stays, the more the house begins to unsettle him.
Corridors stretch endlessly. Silence presses close. An ancient lift appears, holding a mirror that reflects a woman Ran has never met. Or has he?
House of Spines is a haunting psychological thriller with strong gothic undertones. Dark, atmospheric and deeply unsettling, it explores creativity, inheritance and the dangerous line between imagination and reality.
