When Meg Wyatt inherits a manor house in Cornwall from the grandmother she didn’t even know she had, she seizes the opportunity to start her life afresh, embarking on a new adventure with her husband and twin daughters.

 

Of her birth family, all she’s ever known was that her parents died in mysterious circumstances during the Second World War, when was she was just four years old – did her mother kill her father or was there more to the story?

 

As soon as she arrives in the ancestral home of Wexley Heights, which has belonged to the Barrett family since Elizabethan times, Meg starts having visions and aural hallucinations, at the same time that she discovers her formerly hidden talent as a painter – just like her birth father before her. Antipsychotic medication brings things back under control, until a few years later, her four-year-old son starts displaying signs of being possessed by the spirit of Wexley Heights. Once again, Meg feels she is losing her mind. Is Wexley Heights haunted, or is she cursed like the rest of the Barretts?

 

This dark supernatural horror by author Carole Bulewski is a must read for horror and literary fans.
