With gawpers haunting and a murderer closing in, can they survive long enough to see the case through?

And if the ‘green ink ghost’ is revealed, will it be too late for justice to be done?

  • In The Green Ink Ghost Ben has created a fascinating world, rich in detail and intriguing characters. A mystery to be solved indeed!

    Dan Sefton, Screenwriter (The Mallorca Files, Trust Me, The Good Karma Hospital and many more)
  • This classic thriller set in a post-apocalyptic world, reminiscent of Dickensian London, is a real page turner. The characters draw the reader in to the class divide between the silkers and the threaders, and after a few pages you are there on the streets of Old Camdon with Michael Banyard and Josiah Mingle as they attempt to unravel the information they are receiving from a mysterious letter writer. The vivid descriptions of the surroundings and people allow you to stand alongside the private investigators on every step of their earnest, funny and soul-searching, quest for the truth. Prepare to be taken on a well-written, winding road through the incredible imagination of Ben Mears.
