Impressive...a little known gem!!

When David Wisher's mother inherits a house in a Yorkshire village, he feels he is coming home, for he has seen the house in his dreams. When he arrives, he finds a place touched by ancient stories and beliefs - including the legend of the Seven Sleepers, which, legend has it, are awakened if you run seven times around the village church anti-clockwise! This seems to be a hidden gem as with no reviews on the internet (that I could find) it's also not that easy to find any of Morris's books in your traditional bookshops, yet this novel is easily on a par with acclaimed horror writer James Herbert. If you like the idea of day to day normality in Britain meeting horror, you'll love this book. The characters are excellently described, very realistic and could be any large village in Britain!!...except for the Seven Sleepers!!
