About this listen

Discover an absolutely gripping psychological suspense with a massive twist.

Hallow Croft Manor House, 1972

The girl's heart is pounding. She can just hear the sound of his footsteps over her own ragged breathing. She hides within the standing stones, pressing herself against the earthy ground.

Please, God, she prays, keep me safe.

But it's too late.

Now

Single-mom Samantha moves with her daughter to a quiet village in the Peak District. She's still reeling from another disastrous relationship.

The post as matron at Hallow Croft, now an exclusive residential home, seems to offer the escape she needs.

But away from the TV room and afternoon activities, one of the residents is kept locked out of sight "for their own safety."

And nobody will talk about the previous matron. She disappeared, leaving behind only a scuffed diary.

Forty years ago, a girl was killed on the grounds of Hallow Croft Manor. Some people even say that began a curse on the home and the family who owned it.

Can Sam keep her daughter safe here?

This home is the most dangerous place you could put your family.

If you enjoy Freida McFadden, B.A. Paris, Valerie Keogh, Patricia MacDonald, and Jane E. James, you will love The Home. Gripping and totally addictive, you'll be hooked from the first second.

The story sounds promising so I was expecting something really interesting. it is different (which is good), but somehow it's not very gripping. And I think it's down to the narrator. Regional accent and quite high pitched, and somehow does not lend to the suspense-witch-background story as I found it a struggle to continue listening to the end.
