Once home, he retreats to his ancestral family seat of Stirling Towers – a gothic mansion that dominates the landscape near the remote Scottish Borders – for a Christmas of quiet recuperation. But on arrival he discovers that his mother, a fanatical spiritualist, has died and been hastily buried. Isolated from the insular local community, Hal finds himself at the mercy of his mother's two mysterious nurses, the harshest winter on record and, before long, the horrific visions; experiences he attributes to his heavy medication. Yet as the December weather deteriorates, so does Hal's certainty that his home is a place of safety. Who, or what, is trying to frighten him to death?Read More

    Captain Ned Sterling is flown home from Helmand Province, Afghanistan, an IED rendering him battered and broken, and scarred in more ways than one. After a brief rehabilitation at Headley Court, Ned learns that his mother is dying. He returns to the ancient, remote family home near the Scottish Border, intending to convalesce there indefinitely. But when Ned arrives it is too late. His mother has passed; and all that now remains of the household are her nurses, Dawn Imray and her daughter, Treasure. In the isolated, bitterly cold house, Ned starts to see things he's sure can't be there. Although initially dismissing these as the effects of his medication, he soon makes an unsettling discovery: the two women are spiritualists, and have been conducting seances under his roof. As the winter weather increasingly cuts him off from the rest of the world, and his visions intensify, Ned starts to wonder how alone he is, and who these two women really are.
