Publisher Description

"Kerfol" is one of Wharton's more unusual ghost stories, in that the ghosts of the piece aren't human. Chilling and tragic, this tale tells of Anne de Cornault, who is considering buying an estate in France.

We discover that the estate, "Kerfol," (which translates from the Breton as "house of madness") was once the scene of a murder. An atmospheric read, "Kerfol" is an exploration of an unhappy marriage and revenge from beyond the grave.
