The five stories of The New Inn Hall Deception explore the threatening and unexplained at the edge of experience.In the long title story, venial misdemeanours in an Oxford college and a Fenland church open the gates of guilt and death. The four shorter tales continue the theme: a schoolboy hate is rekindled with terrible consequences on the South Downs; a singular bequest exerts its own form of malevolence; an antiquary takes precautions against that which comes after him; and there is an ambiguous encounter in the twilight of a forgotten place.The New Inn Hall Deception follows John Gaskin’s three previous collections of ‘Tales of Twilight and Borderlands’, augmenting the author’s reputation as a master of atmospheric, disturbing fiction.Contains: ‘Preface’, ‘The New Inn Hall Deception’, ‘Near Berwick’, ‘Conditions’, ‘Faces in a Garden’, ‘Deadwater’, ‘Sources’.
