‘Deliciously sinister’ HEAT
‘A clever, creepy read’ SUNDAY EXPRESS
Consumption has ravaged Louise Pinecroft’s family, leaving her and her father alone and heartbroken.

Forty years later, Hester Why arrives at Morvoren House to take up a position as nurse to the now partially paralysed and almost entirely mute Miss Pinecroft. Hester has fled to Cornwall to try and escape her past, but surrounded by superstitious staff enacting bizarre rituals, she soon discovers that her new home may be just as dangerous as her last…
