Determined things must change she rents a tiny, isolated cottage in the Scottish Highlands. Alone. Somewhere she can hide, somewhere she can begin to heal… somewhere she can feel safe.

​

But Ivy Cottage hides secrets of its own, and its gruesome past is just as terrifying. Isolated and cold, wind whispers through the rooms, strange messages appear on mirrors and windows, and dark shadows huddle in the hallway, where chilling noises emerge from the empty cupboard. When a dark figure is glimpsed in the hallway, Willow begins to doubt her sanity.

​

Terrified and trapped, Willow must face the demons that hide in the  walls, and face her own demons head on, as Ivy Cottage’s terrifying secrets begin to expose themselves, and Willow’s harrowing past rushes to meet her… for her attacker is out of jail.

Safety is the only thing Willow needs, but Ivy Cottage has never been safe. Death is never far away, and it’s walls seem to be destined to be splattered with fresh blood.
