'A dark gothic delight' JANICE HALLETT, author of THE TWYFORD CODE
'Inventive, lavish, twisty... will keep you guessing until the very
end' ALISON LITTLEWOOD, author of MISTLETOE Winter 1954, and in a
dilapidated apartment in Brooklyn, Sam Cooper realises that she has
nothing left. Her mother is dead, she has no prospects, and she
cannot afford the rent. But as she goes through her mother's
things, Sam finds a stack of hidden letters that reveal a family
and an inheritance that she never knew she had, three thousand
miles away in Yorkshire. Begars Abbey is a crumbling pile,
inhabited only by Lady Cooper, Sam's ailing grandmother, and a
handful of servants. Sam cannot understand why her mother kept its
very existence a secret, but her newly discovered diaries offer a
glimpse of a young girl growing increasingly terrified. As is Sam
herself. Built on the foundations of an old convent, Begars moves
and sings with the biting wind. Her grandmother cannot speak, and a
shadowy woman moves along the corridors at night. There are dark
places in the hidden tunnels beneath Begars. And they will not give
up their secrets easily... A chilling read that will keep you
turning the pages late into the night, Begars Abbey is a must-read
for fans of Laura Purcell, C.J. Tudor and W.C. Ryan.
