The Woman In Black
Opis
Proud and solitary, Eel Marsh House surveys the windswept reaches of the
salt marshes beyond Nine Lives Causeway. Arthur Kipps, a junior solicitor,
is summoned to attend the funeral Mrs Alice Drablow, the house's sole
inhabitant, unaware of the tragic secrets which lie hidden behind the
shuttered windows. It is not until he glimpses a wasted young woman,
dressed all in black, at the funeral, that a creeping sense of unease
begins to take hold, a feeling deepened by the reluctance of the locals to
talk of the woman in black - and her terrible purpose.
