The House at Low Fell
When Mara Ellison inherits a decaying house on the edge of the Durham moors, she expects damp walls, bad wiring, and a tedious amount of paperwork. Instead, she finds a property that seems to rearrange itself at night, along with a set of old household records that suggest the house has been quietly feeding on the people who lived in it for generations.
