Some things are best left undisturbed... In the countryside of Victorian England, Edward Atherton, rector of Thornham St. Stephen, has taken on the arduous task of restoring the ancient church. But he shouldn't have meddled with the tomb that lay under the church's crumbling walls. As soon as the workman raises the tomb lid, an unspeakable horror escapes. At a loss to clarify the unsettling noises and frightening visions that begin to plague the church, Atherton calls after fellow antiquarian and Cambridge professor Richard Asquith to help investigate the strange events that commenced in the wake of the tomb's disturbance. The two discover tantalizing hints of whom and what might have been laid to rest in the tomb, but the unforeseen circumstances force Asquith to stop his inquiries and leave the small village of Thornham behind. Asquith tries to place the frightening experiences behind him and concentrate on his new wife and family. But death and disappearances abound, and Asquith soon has no choice but to confront the darkness that has followed him from that ancient church into his own home. English novelist Jonathan Aycliffe has mastered the classic English ghost story, and A Shadow on the Wall, nominated in 2000 for the International Horror Guild Award, is sure to both mesmerize and haunt you.
