The Woman in the Dark
Autor Vanessa Savageen Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 mar 2019
Sarah
and
Patrick
are
happy.
But
after
her
mother's
death,
Sarah
spirals
into
depression
and
overdoses
on
sleeping
pills.
While
Sarah
claims
it
was
an
accident,
her
teenage
children
aren't
so
sure.
Patrick
decides
they
all
need
a
fresh
start
and
he
knows
just
the
place,
since
the
idyllic
family
home
where
he
was
raised
has
recently
come
up
for
sale.
There's
only
one
catch:
for
the
past
fifteen
years,
it
has
become
infamous
as
the
"Murder
House",
standing
empty
after
a
family
was
stabbed
to
death
within
its
walls.
Patrick believes they can bring the house back to its former glory, so Sarah, uprooted from everything she knows, pours her energy into painting, gardening, and giving the rotting old structure the warmth of home. But with locals hinting that the house is haunted, the news that the murderer has been paroled, strange writing on the walls, and creepy "gifts" arriving on the doorstep at odd hours, Sarah can't shake the feeling that something just isn't right. Not with the house, not with the town, or even with her own, loving husband -- whose stories about his perfect childhood suddenly aren't adding up. Can Sarah uncover the secrets of the Murder House before another family is destroyed?
