A fragile woman is haunted by a murder that took place in her new home decades earlier in this chilling thriller."Harrison's fiction lingers long after you turn the final page. He's a born storyteller." —Clive BarkerWhen Kathryn Fields moves into a run-down Georgetown townhouse, she hopes that restoring it will help her recover from a recent nervous breakdown that derailed her promising career.But when she discovers a false wall in her bedroom, she mistakenly releases the vengeful ghost of a woman murdered in the townhouse.Is this simply a fantasy of Katherine's damaged psyche?Or have her own demons finally escaped to torment her?"A romantic and unsettling blend of Daphne du Maurier and Shirley Jackson. A real pleasure to read." —Daniel Kraus, New York Times–bestselling author of The Living Dead and The Shape of Water"A ghost story tucked into a very human story; there's a scene in this book that made me jump. . . . John Harrison has written one of my favorite books of the year." —Josh Malerman, New York Times–bestselling author of Bird Box"A perfect book for a spooky late-night read. . . . A well-crafted, goose bump–inducing work of psychological horror." —Kirkus Reviews

“Fiction can show you a different world. It can take you somewhere you've never been. Once you've visited other worlds, like those who ate fairy fruit, you can never be entirely content with the world that you grew up in.“
