Synopsis

From the author of The People at Number 9, a new story of nightmare neighbours...

Can you paint over the cracks in a marriage?

Karen has packed up her life and is making The Move. She's on her way to the idyllic country cottage which her husband has painstakingly renovated for her. They're escaping the London bustle and the daily grind. And they're escaping their past.

A fresh start in a beautiful, peaceful village. It will be different here, right?

But something is awry. The landscape, breathtaking by day, is eerie by night. The longed-for peace and solitude is stifling. And the house, so artfully put together by her husband, has a strange vibe. Now that Karen is cut off from her old friends and family, she can't help wondering if her husband has plans of his own, and that history might be repeating itself.

From the author of the bestselling The People at Number 9 comes a dark and redemptive tale of a rural dream gone wrong...
