Joanne Harris
It is a house full of memories, and full of old things. And, in the dark, when the pylon sings in the wind, it is a house full of ghosts and fading memories . . .
The house, Kirkhill, has a new occupant - just moved in, fresh from a bitter divorce and looking for a fresh start. The moor is the perfect place for it: isolated, beautiful in the changing seasons, peaceful, and with just enough of the previous owners belongings that it's a perfectly self-contained and cosy home.
Only as the nights start to draw in, and the weather takes a turn, so does the house. The cosy isolation becomes menacing, animals begin acting strangely, and it seems someone could be watching the house . . . and the diaries of the previous owners begin to reveal a terrible tragedy which befell Kirkhill - one which its new occupant may be unable to escape . . .

Critic reviews
So wise, so atmospheric, so beautifully written
I sobbed at the end because I couldn't bear to leave...One of the world's finest storytellers
Haunting, obsessive and just a little nutty, like a freshly-made praline
Mouthwatering...your senses are left reeling
Sheer pleasure from start to finish
Sensuous and thought-provoking
I devoured it in one go
A place of magic and mysteries
A novel that shimmers with brilliance and truth
Is this the best book ever written? Truly excellent
