Περιγραφή για The Haunted Vintage Marjorie Bowen British Library Publishing

The wine looked a thick amber colour, powdered with gold. Lally thought of the doctor\'s story of the two men who had followed this woman to the forest and afterwards died miserably. Perhaps it was here that she had brought them. Following a scandal in the Duke\'s court, roguish officer Lally Duchene is dismissed to a new post at a small monastery and asylum deep in the forests of the Rheingau. Disregarding the local superstitions about the dangers of ghosts and nixies in the woods and vineyards, his days slip by in a haze of daydreams.But there something stirring in this woodland idyll. Among the patients is a woman possessing an overpowering, otherworldly aura, and the vestiges of a sinister paganism leer from beneath the holy facades. As the wine harvest approaches and figures from Lally\'s past find themselves drawn to the monastery, the forces of nature awaken and the countryside erupts in an intoxicating carnage of ancient rites.First published in 1921, this rare historical mystery of pagan weirdness rife in nineteenth-century Germany returns to print for the first time since it\'s original publication.
