Synopsis
The past isn't always dead and buried . . .
A house with history. That's how the estate agent described the old toll house on the edge of the town. For Kelda it's the perfect rural home for her young son Dylan after a difficult few years.
But when Kelda finds a death mask concealed behind one of the walls, everything changes. Inexplicable things happen in the house, Kelda cannot shake the feeling of being watched and Dylan is plagued by nightmares, convinced he can see figures in his room. As Dylan's behaviour becomes increasingly challenging, Kelda seeks answers in the house's mysterious past. But she's running out of time.
Because something has awoken.
And now it won't rest . . .

Un jolie coup de cœur ! C'est simple, impossible de lâcher ce roman une fois en mains. J'ai frissonnée comme jamais en découvrant les malheurs de cette petite famille super attachante ainsi que l'histoire de cette maison bien particulière. L'ambiance spooky est bien présente, vibes "The Haunting of Hill House" version campagne anglaise, donc c'est une lecture parfaite pour l'automne/halloween !
