I felt the sense of place, the weather, the cold in that house in my bones'' EMMA CURTIS''Gripping, creepy and drenched in atmosphere'' CATHERINE RYAN HOWARD''This irresistible slow-burn thriller is as much a study of family dynamics as it is a creepy & suspense-filled spine-tingler'' FIONA CUMMINS
