Victim of a violent crime, Jenna is struggling to move on until her friend finds her a new job house-sitting. But these houses arenβt normal, and nor is whatβs inside them! With her old wounds recently reopened, Jenna is in desperate need of a new start, and her friend Tiff thinks sheβs found just the thing when her company needs someone to watch over a trio of houses. Set in an idyllic location in the Shropshire Hills, the houses lie empty, tied up in a legal battle, but from the outset Jenna knows thereβs something wrong with them β and itβs not just down to the vicious wrangling between the owners, either! Why does it feel like the houses are talking to her? And who is the mysterious ex-soldier in the only other house on the hill? Why does he hate the owners so badly, and does he know more of whatβs going on than Jenna has been told? Join Jenna as she unravels the secret of the houses while she struggles to heal her own inner scars, and in the process finds unexpected friends and inner reserves she didnβt know she had. If you love paranormal mysteries by authors such as Barbara Erskine and Phil Rickman; the magical realism of J S Donovan, Diane Setterfield and Melissa Payne; or the magical elements of Diana Gabaldonβs Lord John Grey novels, then this is a book for you!
