Marion Zetland lives with her domineering older brother, John, in a decaying Georgian townhouse on the edge of a northern seaside resort. A timid spinster in her 50s who still sleeps with teddy bears, Marion does her best to shut out the shocking secret that John keeps in the cellar.

Until, suddenly, John has a heart attack, and Marion is forced to go down to the cellar herself and face the gruesome truth that her brother has kept hidden. As questions are asked and secrets unravel, maybe John isn't the only one with a dark side.

A very different thriller with all the darkness but no details of kidnap or torture. Quite refreshingly for me. Reimnded meof a Hitchcock thriller. incredible narration by Emma Gregory and very well written.

A definite Psychological thriller

You think you've read all the popular 'Incarcerated in the Cellar' novels and know the premise - until you read this beauty.
I call it a Work of Literature.

A reasonable portion of the book devotes itself to Marion's childhood and current mundane living which has unfairly gained criticism in online reviews on Goodreadsu - They don't understand that this is crucial to slowly building up the background of her subsequent susceptibility to coercive control by her brother who she loves and is dependent upon. Her reality is distorted.
Hindly/Brady came to mind .

The story becomes horrific - because of it's reality. We know this is perfectly possible and probably happening right now.

The Novel itself is so eloquent and beautifully written in parts (and expertly narrated) that I have re-read certain chapters again - most unusual for me.
This is not popcorn fiction. It makes you think and stays with you long after searching for another novel as good.
Well worth your Audible Credit.

Absolutely Worth A Credit - Enjoy

For the most part i enjoyed this story, Emma Gregorys narration is flawless, her regional northern accents are authentic and never slip into caricature and never a vowel incorrectly spoken, certainly one of the best i have heard in a very long time. The book is claustrophobic and certainly has an air of creeping menace but as somebody else has said the characters apart from Marion are not developed enough particularly that of her squalid, ghastly brother John given his role in the book this was perhaps an opportunity missed. All in all then a book well worth listening to if only for the perfect narration by the peerless Emma Gregory.
