The Cottage 

By Lisa Stone

What a wild ride. Multiple POV’s, mystery with thriller elements. Atmospheric. Amazing world building and characters. I couldn’t put this one down.

An isolated cottage...

After losing her job and boyfriend, Jan Hamlin is in desperate need of a fresh start. So she jumps at the chance to rent a secluded cottage on the edge of Coleshaw Woods.

A tap at the window...

Very quickly though, things take a dark turn. At night, Jan hears strange noises, and faint taps at the window. Something, or someone, is out there.

A forest that hides many secrets...

Jan refuses to be scared off. But whoever is outside isn’t going away, and it soon becomes clear that the nightmare is only just beginning...
