Summary
  • Cockram makes her thrilling debut with this page-turning tale of psychological suspense in which a young woman whose life is in tatters flees to the safety of a family estate in England, but instead of comfort finds chilling secrets and lies. Miranda's life and career has been a roller-coaster ride. Her successful rise to the top of the booming lifestyle industry as a social media influencer led to a humiliating fall after a controversial product she endorsed flopped. Desperate to get away from the hate-spewing trolls shaming her on the internet, she receives a mysterious letter from a young cousin in England that plunges her into a dark family mystery.
  • Miranda Courteney's rise as a social media influencer ended after a controversial product she endorsed flopped. She receives a letter from a young cousin in England about Tessa Summer's book The House of Brides-- following the notorious women who married into the infamous Summers family. Barnsley House, the family's estate, is now an exclusive culinary destination and hotel. Tessa Summer was Miranda's mother, but she has never met that side of her family. Posing as a nanny answering an advertisement, Miranda finds the luxury destination and award-winning restaurant gone, and and one of the children in a wheelchair after an accident. What darkness lies hidden in Barnsley?
