Derek Dunne has been a taxi driver in London for longer than he cares to remember. Every night he heads out to help people get home, but every night he's also haunted by the memory of a fare from many years earlier. As a young man, Derek once picked up a terrified woman and took her to a certain house on a certain street. He knew something was wrong but he didn't dare to intervene, and the woman was later found murdered and horribly mutilated. And while Derek has always tried to convince himself that he couldn't have done anything, that the woman's fate wasn't his fault, a tiny part of him still fills with dread whenever he has to drive down that road. And then one night he sees her again. She looks like the exact same woman and she wants the exact same thing: to be driven to the house where she once met such an awful fate. Derek's first assumption is that this is all a trick, that someone is trying to make him feel worse. But as the night draws on and the rain continues, Derek starts to wonder whether something else might be happening instead. Is he finally going to get a chance to fix his biggest regret? And what will he find if, this time, he dares to follow the woman into the house where she once died? 10pm is the third book in the Haunting of London series, a collection of stand-alone but loosely linked horror stories set over the course of one ghostly twenty-four hour period in the city.
