The Widower

Hardback

He promised, until death do us part

The atmospheric, chilling new novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Richard and Judy pick The Loving Husband

Rose Bateman comes to an isolated house: a great echoing house alone on the Essex marshes, a house on what is almost an island at certain stages of the tide. A Victorian rectory, the church it once served long no more than a pile of rubble with rooms too big for its few inhabitants, a grand dining room, a drawing room, an overgrown verandah. A house where a woman has died, untended, isolated, in an upper room as the fog rolled in. A woman who died calling for help.

She has come to look after her dead sister's family - a widower and children that she has never met. But as things unfold, she realises not all is as it seems in the dark, spooky house - and doesn't know who to trust.
