Beneath the Shadows

How do you begin to move on,

if the past won't let you go?

For readers of Daphne du Maurier and Susan Hill — a gothic mystery steeped in atmosphere, folklore, and suspicion.

When Grace's husband, Adam, inherits a cottage on the isolated North Yorkshire moors, they leave London behind to try a new life. However, a week later, Adam vanishes, leaving their baby daughter on the doorstep.

The following year, Grace returns to the tiny village of Roseby. She is desperate for answers, but the slumbering village is unwilling to give up its secrets. As Grace learns more about the locals and the area's superstitions and folklore, strange dreams begin to trouble her. Are the villagers hiding something, or is she becoming increasingly paranoid? Only as snowfall threatens to cut them off from the rest of the world does Grace begin to understand how close the threat truly lies, and that she and her daughter may be in terrible danger if she cannot get them away in time.

'Foster's second page-turning tale of suspense set on the snow-covered moors has something for everyone: mystery, romance, paranormal activity and mortal danger.'
