Guardian Bookshop Notes:

A group of close friends discover more than they bargained for in an Oxfordshire manor, over a hot, decadent summer of escalating passions and tensions. Echoes of the past point to buried secrets, shattering friendships and changing lives irrevocably. Reminiscent of Daphne du Maurier and Donna Tartt in its building psychological suspense, with great jacket and strong reviews. 'Deliciously sinister... Whitehouse slowly ratchets up the psychological tension until the peril is palpable in this eerily atmospheric début' "Daily Mail"

Publisher's description:

When Lucas inherits Stoneborough Manor after his uncle's unexpected death, he imagines it as a place where he and his close circle of friends can spend time away from London. But from the beginning, the house changes everything. Lucas becomes haunted by the death of his uncle.
