Preorder the chilly BRAND NEW. pulse-pounding psychological thriller from the INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING author of The House Sitter, Keri Beevis


A sister looking for answers.

A brother with secrets to hide...


Three days before Christmas, I travel to Midwinter Manor in Norfolk through a worsening snowstorm to meet Daniel, the brother I never knew existed. He has reluctantly granted me an hour of his precious time.


The welcome I receive is frosty. Daniel is cold, intimidating and unfriendly, while his wife, Rose, is polite, but tense. From the moment I step through the door of this imposing manor house, I sense I’m not welcome.


When I go to leave, the snowy blizzard prevents me. Then there’s a power cut and I can’t let anyone know where I am. I realise I am trapped.


Something feels wrong in this house. The way Daniel and Rose speak in whispers behind closed doors suggests something’s amiss. As cracks start to form in their stories, I wonder what it is they are hiding.


Midwinter Manor is a house full of secrets, and some of them are dangerously deadly.


The thrilling new read for fans of Freida McFadden, Claire McGowan and Lisa Jewell.
