FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE SIX TUDOR QUEENS SERIES.
A dazzling Tudor ghost story from the bestselling novelist Alison Weir.
I sit there frozen, unable to move, wondering if she will reappear. Either the house really is haunted, or I'm seeing things that aren't there. . .
Oxfordshire, present day. When a young woman grieves the loss her mother, she is invited to stay with her aunt, the custodian of a historic house, until she recovers.
Soon, she becomes entangled in the mysteries of the beautiful but eerie Greys Court. Nobody lives here, except Lucy and her aunt. But there are footprints in the dust. An inexplicable scent of roses. And visions of a weeping woman in black silk.
Then the nightmares start. In them, a wooden platform, a red-stained white cap and an overwhelming sense of dread. Something - or someone - is haunting Greys Court. And it may be trying to communicate with them.
What is this house trying to tell her? And can the past ever stay buried?
