Nell, husband Chris and his daughter Maude are renting a seaside holiday cottage to attend an anniversary party for one of Nell's relatives.
But things aren't what they seem, the cottage is strange, odd carvings in the beams, concealed items behind wall panels including a child's shoe.
The house is affecting them all, Maude loathes her stepmother Nell, Chris has left to sort out a work crisis so its just Nell and Maude.
With things intensifying both between them, supernatural happenings increasing and their neighbours acting weird Nell fears for them as something dark is coming closer and closer.
What strange force is at work and what does it want?
A cleverly woven, slow burn ghost / supernatural novel with an historical slant.
Totally my kind of read and perfect for Halloween or even just this time of year, a cold winters evening.
