The Boat House
A Russian illegal attempts to settle in the English Lakes, but brings with her the dangerous conviction that she is stalked and possessed by a lake spirit of her homeland.
"Gallagher handles the balance between mundane reality and stomach-turning horror with reassurance and offers a nicely twisted ending to boot. Highly recommended." – Nigel Kendall, Time Out
"A master of pace and suspense, Gallagher has the dark, neon-splashed imagination of a true original." – Glasgow Evening Times
