Many thanks to NetGalley, Macmillan Audio and Flatiron Books | Pine & Cedar for gifting me an audio ARC of this creepy tale by Sarah Pinborough, made even better with the narration of Helen Baxendale, Jamie Glover, and the author. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars rounded up!
After an accident nearly kills her, Emily and her husband, Freddie, move from London to a beautiful Dartmoor country house called Larkin Lodge. The house is gorgeous, striking—and to Emily, something about it feels deeply wrong. Fires go out, books fall from shelves, and she feels a presence in the third-floor room. Freddie doesn’t notice anything and insists that Emily is still recovering from postsepsis which can cause hallucinatory effects. But bizarre events keep happening.
Oh my goodness, best read this one with the lights on! There are creepy Gothic vibes happening, unreliable narrators, and suspense for miles that will keep you flipping the pages. I loved the different POVs and how everyone had secrets they were keeping. I could never have guessed that ending! The star narration team just added to this and I would recommend listening to the audiobook.
