THE TRUTH DOESN'T HURT. IT KILLS.
You know that feeling? The one that makes you want to glance over your shoulder?
All Clara Benning wants is a peaceful life as a wildlife vet, and to hide her disfigurement from the world.
But now she doesn't have a choice.
Because a man has died from a suspicious snake bite, and Clara's concern leads her to the abandoned house at the end of the lane, and an unspeakable tragedy that occurred half a century ago.
What is it exactly that lies in store...?

A clever, intricately plotted thriller, full of characters far from the conventional mould of the genre…S.J. Bolton has elevated herself to the High Priestess of English Rural Gothic. If she carries on like this she will have worshippers in their millions
