The Afterlife of Darkmares by P J Newcombe
‘When
single mum Kate Linden’s disabled daughter dies unexpectedly she is stunned to
find she is under suspicion of harming her. But Kate still has a 12year old
son, Grif, who refuses to speak and is grappling with issues of his own – not
least of which is his attachment to a supposedly imaginary friend. Kate’s
relationship with her son is fraught as she struggles to make some kind of
connection with him and also deal with her own intense grief.
Unbeknown
to Kate, in 1665, a disastrous event - the plague - in a small Derbyshire
village - has consequences that stretch into the 21st Century and
she is blind to the fact that her son (feeling estranged from all around him)
has unwittingly allowed an evil entity to awaken and threaten them all.
Kate must now fight her own demons and accept
help from unlikely sources if she is to save her son from a fate worse than
death. The help finally comes from a sleep therapist, an elderly bereaved lady
and Jeremiah, an old man who hovers between life and death on a life support
machine…’

Good luck with the book, wishing you every success. Yes, I enjoy thrillers with a flavour of the supernatural, but not too horrific, Susan Hill's book The Woman in Black scared me.
