When Rachel sets off alone for her mother's isolated country house, she promises herself that the business of packing up and selling will only take a couple of weeks, and then she'll be home again, and back to normal. But from the moment she steps through the front door, Rachel feels that the house contains more than she had expected. A page-turning, spine-tingling novel about love and motherhood, and about loss and survival, that is also quite possibly a ghost story.
