A ghostly Golden Age mystery from the English playwright of The Farmer's Wife, famously adapted into a silent film directed by Alfred Hitchcock. At a house party at Sir Walter Lennox's estate, the guests are spooked by stories of the manor's legendary Grey Room, in which two unexplained deaths happened years before. Eager to debunk the room's sinister reputation, Lennox's son-in-law decides to spend the night in the abandoned bedchamber, only to be found dead the next morning, the victim of no discernable cause. But the Grey Room's hunger has yet to be appeased--and the body count rises. A renowned London detective is determined to unlock the room's secrets, convinced that the deaths have a very human cause, though not necessarily a sane one. What happens next will throw the estate into hysteria--and reveal the darkest magic from centuries past . . .

British novelist Eden Phillpotts wrote the book Fancy Free, which was initially released in 1901. The protagonist of the tale is a young English woman named Fancy Quilter who lives in a small Devonian village. Despite social expectations, Fancy is a free-spirited, self-reliant lady who is determined to enjoy life on her terms. The story follows Fancy as she struggles with issues of love, family, and societal conventions. She develops feelings for a local farmer named Dick Pentreath, but their relationship is hampered by her family's disapproval and their disparate social classes. As the narrative progresses, Fancy is forced to face the results of her decisions and the boundaries of her own freedom. As she discovers her position in the world, she comes to understand the value of community and compromise. The early 20th century English classic novel Fancy Free addresses issues of love, class, and the quest for individual independence. Readers still find resonance in this timeless story today.
