The People Before Zusammenfassung

The People Before Charlotte Northedge

'Charlotte Northedge turns the psychological thumbscrews with relish' THE TIMES

'I read through the night to finish this thriller about a dream country house that turns into a nightmare. Spooky, tense, richly atmospheric and profoundly moving' ERIN KELLY

What if your dream house became your worst nightmare?

Jess and her husband need a new start. So when the chance to buy a rambling old house in the Suffolk countryside comes up, they leap at it.

But not everyone in Suffolk is welcoming. The locals know a secret about the Maple House, and soon, Jess realises they've made a huge mistake.

Something bad happened in that house. Something nobody wants to talk about.

Something to do with the people before...
