Overview

Outside a Northern Irish village stands a farmhouse with a grim history of violence half a century ago. Now its new tenant, a young woman trapped in a troubled marriage, must confront that legacy in this haunting new standalone from Stuart Neville, King of Belfast Noir.

Sara Keane's husband, Damien, has uprooted them from England and moved them to his native Northern Ireland for a fresh start in the wake of her nervous breakdown. But three sleepless nights into their new life Sara understands it's not an entirely fresh start after all: Damien's new boss is his ex-con father, whose contracting business is run with violence and tinged by paramilitary association. Sara, who knows no one in Northern Ireland, is jobless, carless, friendless--all but a prisoner in her own house.

And then there's the house itself: when a blood-soaked old woman beats on the door, insisting the house is hers before being bundled back to her care facility, Sara begins to understand the house has a terrible history her husband and his father never intended for her to discover.
