Summary

From the number one best-selling author, Peter James, comes The Secret of Cold Hill.

The spine-chilling follow-up to The House on Cold Hill. Now a smash-hit stage play.

Cold Hill House has been razed to the ground by fire, replaced with a development of ultra-modern homes. Gone with the flames are the violent memories of the house’s history and a new era has begun.

Although much of Cold Hill Park is still a construction site, the first two families move into their new houses. For Jason and Emily Danes, this is their forever home, and for Maurice and Claudette Penze-Weedell, it’s the perfect place to live out retirement. Despite the ever present rumble of cement mixers and diggers, Cold Hill Park appears to be the ideal place to live. But looks are deceptive and it’s only a matter of days before both couples start to feel they are not alone in their new homes.

There is one thing that never appears in the estate agent brochures: nobody has ever survived beyond 40 in Cold Hill House and no one has ever truly left....

A jolly horror for Christmas

A lovely narration. This will not keep you up at night but a very enjoyable, fun horror. Perfect for winter nights. Doesn't require too much concentration.

Very good sequel

Enjoyed this more than the first. Very good and it’s well with a listen. Who’s a spectre and who’s not? That’s the question.

A fascinating storyline

One of the most interesting story lines I have heard. A little spooky and scary, a little romantic and annoying. But thoroughly different, worth a listen.
