Description
A newly wealthy American couple retreats to an ancient English manor, seeking peace, privacy, and a life removed from the pressures of society. Their secluded idyll is unsettled by the appearance of a mysterious stranger—and when the husband vanishes, his wife begins to question the house’s dark history and the legend attached to it. Blending psychological suspense, supernatural unease, and sharp observations of marriage and privilege, this atmospheric tale showcases Edith Wharton’s elegant, quietly chilling style.
