'Laura Purcell really is a master of the unsettling ghost story' Jen Williams

Not every house is a home...

Belinda Bainbridge has spent her life in the shadow of her controlling mother, so when her father-in-law dies at The Bridge, his remote ancestral seat, she is secretly thrilled. His death means she, her husband Wilfred and their children can relocate and finally begin to create their own happy home together. Their new residence is not without challenges: the garden is a wilderness, the estate is struggling financially, there are whispers about the mysterious death of a servant many years before... When Wilfred's charismatic brother, Nathan, arrives from abroad, he brings much needed excitement and energy. But he also brings rumours of a curse on the house.

Belinda has questions. What happened to Nathan and Wilfred's sister in childhood? What led to the sudden death of her father in law? Are her children safe?

And what part do the strange wooden figures around the household have to play in the events?
