Description
When a family inherits a remote country house, unsettling footsteps, ominous legends, and a killer on the loose transform their new home into a place of mounting danger. As fear of a supernatural predator spreads, the occupants must determine whether the threat comes from beyond the grave—or from a very human source hiding among them. Blending atmospheric suspense, comic misunderstandings, and ingenious mystery, the novel plays with the conventions of the haunted-house tale while keeping its characters at the heart of the intrigue. It is an early example of the author’s lively, character-driven style and her talent for turning peril into sharply entertaining storytelling.
