I thought this move would be our fresh start. A beautiful old house in rural Norfolk. Quiet, secluded and safe - thatâs what Ash my boyfriend, promised me. And at first, it is...
Until I meet the neighbours.
Benjamin is friendly, almost too eager to please. But his sister, Virginia, is different. Silent. Distant. Always watching.
Then I learn what happened to the last person who lived here - how they vanished without a trace.
With Ash away on business, the house no longer feels empty. I hear footsteps when no oneâs there. Doors creak open in the night. Something moves in the dark.
I tell myself itâs nothing. But the feelings wonât go away. I feel like I am being watched.
And then I start to wonder if coming here was a terrible mistake because Iâm not sure Iâll ever leave this house alive. ** The thriller not to be missed for fans of Freida McFadden, Claire McGowan and Lisa Jewell.**
