"Utterly spellbinding.... Witchcraft meets thriller." (Pop Sugar)

Two sisters go missing on a remote Scottish island. Twenty years later, one is found - but she's still the same age as when she disappeared. The secrets of witches have reached across the centuries in this chilling Gothic thriller from the author of the acclaimed The Nesting.

When single mother Liv is commissioned to paint a mural in a 100-year-old lighthouse on a remote Scottish island, it's an opportunity to start over with her three daughters - Luna, Sapphire, and Clover. When two of her daughters go missing, she's frantic. She learns that the cave beneath the lighthouse was once a prison for women accused of witchcraft. The locals warn her about wildlings, supernatural beings who mimic human children, created by witches for revenge. Liv is told wildlings are dangerous and must be killed.

Twenty-two years later, Luna has been searching for her missing sisters and mother. When she receives a call about her youngest sister, Clover, she's initially ecstatic. Clover is the sister she remembers - except she's still seven years old, the age she was when she vanished. Luna is worried Clover is a wildling. Luna has few memories of her time on the island, but she'll have to return to find the truth of what happened to her family. But she doesn't realize just how much the truth will change her.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Right from the start, I was hooked on this eerie, cryptic novel. I don’t know how C. J. Cooke does it, but every time I pick up one of her books, I can’t stop reading until the last page.” (Samantha Downing, USA Today best-selling author of My Lovely Wife)

"Utterly spellbinding.... Witchcraft meets thriller." (Pop Sugar)

"Truly scary....a new horror novel set on a remote Scottish island." (Book Riot)

Such fantastic writing!

I absolutely love the story line and the twist and turns the book takes. I read every day, so I go through hundreds of books each year. This one is definitely on my top ten for this year.

Good read with twist…

You may think you know but you don’t. This has many plot twist so I was very surprised at the ending.

More Please :)

This is my 1st C. J. Cooke novel. I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I really loved the melding of mystery, fantasy & fiction. When I came close to the end I stopped to take a break because I was not ready for it to be over. The narrator also did a lovely job. I will check out this authors other novels. I hope to find the other books just as good.

Couldn’t stop listening

One of the best books I’ve listened to in awhile. I could not stop listening.

Wonderful story

The author really drew me into the story. I ended up finishing it in one day with a lot of sleep deprivation the next day. It was well worth it! I’m going to check out the rest of her novels as this one was so good. If you love a little mystery and magic and enjoy a good family relationship story, I think you’ll love this book.

okay...good enough story

Alot of different characters and different periods of time...hard to keep up at times. Has a really good twist tho!

One of my favorite stories now!

I loved this story. It was thrilling suspenseful and kept me engaged the whole time!

Fantastic!

This book was fantastic! The voices were perfect. I found myself listening every chance I had.

Great pre-Halloween listen

I binged this in 2 days. Good for those looking for a horror story before Halloween. Also, if you’re an Outlander fan stuck in the droughtlander the Scottish setting/history helps pass the time until Book 9 comes out.

amazing!

I have always loved anything to do with time travel. This was whole new level. I had to really focus but the story was so captivating that was easy. would make awesome movie.
