Summary
Some houses are NEVER at peace…
SHORTLISTED FOR THE GOLDSBORO BOOKS GLASS BELL AWARD
SHORTLISTED FOR THE HISTORICAL WRITERS’ ASSOCIATION DEBUT CROWN
‘A gothic gem of intrigue and atmosphere’ HWA Debut Crown Judges
England, 1917
Reeling from the death of her fiancé, Stella Marcham welcomes the opportunity to stay with her pregnant sister, Madeleine, at her imposing country mansion, Greyswick – but she arrives to discover a house of unease and her sister gripped by fear and suspicion.
Before long, strange incidents begin to trouble Stella – sobbing in the night, little footsteps on the stairs – and as events escalate, she finds herself drawn to the tragic history of the house.
Aided by a wounded war veteran, Stella sets about uncovering Greyswick’s dark and terrible secrets – secrets the dead whisper from the other side…
In the classic tradition of The Woman in Black, Anita Frank weaves a spellbinding debut of family tragedy, loss and redemption.
‘A spine-tingling debut from Anita Frank is part ghost story, part murder mystery, and the perfect chilling read as the nights turn colder and longer’ OK!
‘I loved it SO MUCH – so creepy and compelling, full of atmosphere and gave me goosebumps…’ Lisa Hall
‘If you liked The Woman in Black, you’ll love this utterly gripping and atmospheric book’ Woman & Home
‘Haunting, emotional and exquisitely written’ Amanda Jennings
‘For fans of Henry James and Susan Hill, this chilling supernatural mystery is written in the classic mould. Intriguing, moving and assured’ Essie Fox
‘I’ve raced to the shocking final twist of this lush, beautifully written historical novel. A gripping ghost story with an achingly poignant family mystery at its heart’ Samantha King
Critic reviews
"Supernatural and historical intertwine in Anita Frank’s unsettling first novel...reminiscent of other tales of the supernatural, but conveys its own frissons and shocks." (Sunday Times)
"With wonderful character...This is a brilliantly gothic adventure – and the perfect winter page-turner." (Sunday Mirror)

Great ghost story, shaky narration..
Such a great story - gripping, spooky - spoiled by the narrator's odd word pronunciation.

Wonderfully read
I devoured this audiobook. The story was engaging but it wasn’t that original. It was the narration that was really captivating.

Well written, and full of suspense!
I really enjoyed this book, my first time of reading this author. I thought the characters to be well developed and interesting. The story was good but I thought there were a few inconsistencies with the 'time', a few things didn't feel appropriate for the time of the first World War, however, this didn't dull my enjoyment!
Excellent overall.

A ghost story
A lovely, gentle, not too scary ghost story, set just after the first World War. Beautifully written with accurate attention to detail and very well narrated.
