In a world scarred by war, one man’s promise leads him into a house haunted by tragedy.
After the horror of World War One, army chaplain John Elliot arrives at Hern Hall, an isolated English estate shrouded in mist and haunted by dark secrets. Battling shellshock, John has come to fulfil a vow made to his friend Will, who died in the trenches saving his life. But the eerie calm of Hern Hall hides something far more sinister.
When he glimpses the face of a drowned child beneath the lake’s dark waters, John is pulled deeper into the haunting past of the Chiddingstone family. Drawn to Lucy, Will’s beautiful, blind sister, and intrigued by her grieving parents, he’s swept into a disturbing web of secrets that refuses to stay buried.
Invited to a séance by the mysterious Madame Blanche, John confronts ghostly whispers and the shadow of an ancient curse.
With each unsettling encounter, he edges closer to the truth behind a childhood game that ended in tragedy and the question that haunts Hern Hall: can the dead ever find peace, or will they linger forever, bound by the darkness of their past?
