A terrifying ghost story by the bestselling author of The Woman in Black.
The remoter parts of the English Fens are unruly, deserted and damp, even in the height of summer. In Iyot Lock stands a large, decaying house, belonging to Leonora and Edward's Aunt Kestrel. The pair are cousins, who were both sent to their aunt's creepy house for the summer when they were children.
At the time, Leonora was angry and upset when she received the wrong dolly for her birthday.
At the time, Edward told himself that the noises he heard around the house were in his head.
But now, 40 years later, the terrifying consequences of what happened to Leonora's birthday doll are just beginning to surface...
