Description:
|
In the aftermath of a tumultuous year, Fiona Winslow finds solace in the decaying grandeur of Wurimbirra, the rambling family estate. Intent on restoring it - despite her mother's objections - she discovers the keys to more than just the dilapidated country mansion. Beneath the crumbling plaster are secrets that have been buried for a generation.
When a book, The Midnight Estate, catches her attention, Fiona is plunged into a tale that mirrors her own life - a story of love, loss and betrayal. She dismisses the similarities as coincidence, but as she's drawn deeper into the story, the lines between fiction and reality blur, and Fiona must ask how well does she know her family?
Comments from BDS Reviewers:"It was very easy to read and very engaging. The ghostly setup is actually quite realistic and believable."
"There is mystery and intrigue, and the challenge of finding out what happened in the past!"
"The book-within-a-book format was a little confusing at first, but it was great to suddenly fit the hints and clues together."
"There were scary scenes, sadness, drama, thrilling escapades and emotional heartache - all fitting together neatly."
"An easy light read about a dysfunctional family with a complicated history, peppered with the hint of a haunted house."
"So, you have two great yarns, a moral issue, a potential ghost story, a happy ever after ending, and families who manage their quirks and conflicts."
