Greatcoat by Helen Dunmore

I read this in  November 2012 because it was a Waterstone's Arc, Bury St Edmunds book club read
I must say, despite it's simplicity I enjoyed this dark tale of post war Yorkshire. A young couple move into rented rooms and the wife finds a greatcoast stashed in a cupboadr which she spreads on the bed to keep warm (remember those days when coats were added to the bedclothes for warmth.) The greatcoat calls back it's former owener who starts a relationship with Isabel the young wife...
A real old fashioned ghost story. I really enjoyed it. Mysterious and haunting
