Some secrets are unspoken. Others are unspeakable . . . August
1939. Thirty-year-old Hetty Cartwright is tasked with the
evacuation and safekeeping of the natural history museum's
collection of mammals. Once she and her exhibits arrive at Lockwood
Manor, however, where they are to stay for the duration of the war,
Hetty soon realizes that she's taken on more than she'd bargained
for. Protecting her charges from the irascible Lord Lockwood and
resentful servants is work enough, but when some of the animals go
missing, and worse, Hetty begins to suspect someone - or something
- is stalking her through the darkened corridors of the house. As
the disasters mount, Hetty finds herself falling under the spell of
Lucy, Lord Lockwood's beautiful but clearly haunted daughter. But
why is Lucy so traumatized? Does she know something she's not
telling? And is there any truth to local rumours of ghosts and
curses? Part love story, part mystery, The Animals at Lockwood
Manor by Jane Healey is a gripping and atmospheric tale of family
madness, long-buried secrets and hidden desires.
