About this listen

A stirring psychological thriller adapted into the movie The Haunted Airman starring Robert Pattinson.

Toby Jugg, a fighter pilot shot down in combat, is now confined to his bed with little hope of walking again. He is also the heir to a considerable fortune—a fortune that is being administered by a board of trustees until he comes of age.

But night after night, out there in the moonlight, Something was trying to get in at the bedroom window. A huge malevolent Something. Something not of this world. Inside, Toby thought first that he was hallucinating, then that he must be going mad, finally that this evil Something was real and striving to reach him.

So begins what is probably Dennis Wheatley's most terrifying story of the supernatural. The struggle which ensues brings Toby unexpected help but also treachery as it moves inexorably towards an appalling confrontation and seemingly inevitable catastrophe.

Half conservative manifesto half ghost story

The narrator has a great voice but the performance is hampered by his stilted manner of delivering the lines. The story is entertaining when you get beyond the political rants.

Astonishing and sometimes shocking story

There is immense detail in this story, and some may think this perhaps makes it a little laborious at times. There are plot twists galore, excellent characterisations of the different players and some shocking twists and surprises. Richard Linfield reads with masterful skill, never a hesitation or stumble. He has designed accents to suit all the characters which facilitates distinguishing who is who - I listened as I drove across Europe and found some difficulty in making out some words in German-based accents - but there is no faulting Richard's professionalism and panache in offering the listener this journey into the occult, where love and goodness play the star role. Bravo!

One to miss!

Worst narration and production on Audible. As a Wheatley fan I was very disappointed.
