Chilling the Water: A brand new collection of original ghost stories set around fishy places.

Following the success of Peter Wise's first book, Disturbing the Water, this latest collection features 13 brand new original ghost stories. Set across the UK and elsewhere, locations include Highland rivers, a village pond, a Balkans moat and a Cambodian lake that breathes. Each story is accompanied by a full-page illustration by renowned wildlife artist Simon Trinder.

Like its predecessor, it includes tales of tragedy, redemption and the unexpected, plus touches of real history. Protagonists include a missionary, a biologist, a cook, a famous actor, a group of book clubbers and various anglers - but you certainly don't have to be an angler to enjoy these stories.

So prepare for some fresh chills from the water's edge - and beyond it.
