The imposing gates of Ramsay Hall yawned open. As Serena and 4-year-old Lana walked up the long driveway, little did they know the dark secrets that lay within.
When Serena Green accepted the role of housekeeper
for wealthy widower Hayden Ramsay, she never imagined her new home would be
Ramsay Hall, an ancient, sprawling mansion in Northern England.
Serena quickly becomes an integral part of the
household, making friends with Hayden’s younger son Hugh, despite Jack, his
older brother’s, coldness towards her and Lana.
But the hall’s beautiful exterior hides many ugly
secrets. Though Serena and Jack begin to grow closer, she’s confused by his
behaviour around Lana. What is he guilty of? And is there more to their
mother’s death than the Ramsay men will admit, even to themselves?
As the harrowing past of Ramsay Hall unravels,
Serena fresh start becomes a fresh horror. She fears for her and Lana’s safety,
but what are the bleak secrets in Serena’s own past?
This house is built on a lifetime of lies… and the
truth might just bring the walls crashing down. A twisty, gripping and
utterly unputdownable new thriller that fans of Lisa Jewell, C.L. Taylor and
Mark Edwards will love.
Review:
Any crime/mystery/drama/thriller lovers out there – this is the book for you. This book has it all – love, secrets, drama, mystery, lies – you name it’s got it. Very cleverly written to keep you glued to every page and keeps the twist coming until the last page and even then it still keeps you guessing and wondering if you really have learned the whole truth.
Serena and Lana arrive at Ramsay Hall clearly running away. They settle quickly into the live in the Hall whilst Serena tries to cope with her fears and hiding injuries that testify to her previous life. However, meeting her boss’s sons Hugh and Jack, changes everything.
Serena finds herself uncovering family secrets whilst desperately trying to keep her own hidden and realising at the same time that she will never be completely safe.
I can’t say much more without giving things away, just to say the Ramsay family and Serena have more secrets than my brain could at times cope with! Brilliant read!
