What do you do when you lose everything?
After the tragic death of her boyfriend, Hannah Clitheroe is hiding away from the world. But when she discovers she’s inherited a house in Cornwall, she knows it’s time to face reality.
Her estranged grandmother lived in Kernow House for years, but Hannah soon realises someone else thinks it’s rightfully theirs: Raphael Tregar, an intolerant and contemptuous man who quickly gets under her skin.
But as winter sets in, there’s one more thing that keeps her up at night, and the rising fear that she may not find her true home in Cornwall after all…
A little from chapter one , that I enjoyed reading.
Hannah thought it looked like the saddest house in the world, a slate-roofed Cornish monolith with dark windows for eyes, looming out at them from under November rain. Did houses have feelings, though? she wondered, studying it as they drew steadily closer. Could a house emote? Or was that all in the eyes of the beholder? It was a question for a psychology student, perhaps. Or someone clever like Santos , with that restless spirit of inquiry that had always got him into trouble. Hannah was not a particularly intellectual or superstitious person, however, and her beloved Santos was gone.
