The haunting second novel from the author of The Night of the
Flood. Two women, separated by decades, are drawn together by one,
mysterious house on the North Norfolk coast. 'Part ghost story,
part thriller, I loved it.' Louise Hare, author of This Lovely City
DECEMBER, 1962 Desperate for a happy Christmas after a disastrous
year, Malorie rents a remote house on the Norfolk coast for herself
and her daughter Franny. Yet when a furious blizzard traps the pair
indoors, the strained silence between them feels louder than ever.
Escaping to the attic, Malorie finds the discarded diaries of
Rosemary, who lived at the Marsh House through the Thirties. As she
reads, she finds herself inexorably drawn into Rosemary's lonely
existence - until past and present begin to blur entirely... Praise
for The Marsh House: 'Zoe Somerville is a born storyteller and this
page-turner delivers plenty of creepy thrills.' The Times 'A
satisfyingly dark, gothic tale where the past is never far behind
you.' Rhiannon Ward, author of The Quickening 'Beautifully written,
atmospheric as hell, and elegantly constructed, the story of The
Marsh House will draw you into its grip and never let go till the
final word.' Jane Johnson, author of The Sea Gate 'Deliciously
eerie and unsettling, The Marsh House had me bewitched from page
one. I loved its layers of history and secrets. A haunting gem of a
book.' Susan Allott, author of The Silence 'A fabulous read, deft
and precise, with a satisfying mystery at its centre, based upon a
beautifully compassionate reading of the tradition of English folk
magic.' Amanda Mason, author of The Hiding Place 'Immersed in the
landscape of the North Norfolk coast, this is a clever, suspenseful
novel that kept me intrigued. Part ghost story, part thriller, I
loved it.' Louise Hare, author of This Lovely City
