AMY CROSS
THE HAUNTING OF
ADELE
FINCH
A frozen estate. A woman at the window. And a housekeeper about to uncover a chilling secret...
The year is 1899 and Crowford is in the grip of an icy winter. When nineteen-year-old Emily Jones is sent to work as a housekeeper, she’s woefully unprepared for the cold - and for what waits inside Finch House.
Her employer, the reclusive Adele Finch, rarely leaves her post by the downstairs window. Day and night, she stares out into the snow, waiting. But for whom? Or worse... for what?
The longer Emily stays, the stranger things become. Whispers echo through the halls. Unseen hands rattle the windowpanes. Blood-red streaks spiral beneath the ice in the garden pond. Something is watching. Something is hunting.
As Emily digs into the house’s past, she uncovers whispers of a vanished housekeeper, a torched estate across town, and a solicitor whose mind seems broken by what he’s seen. Finch House hides a terrible secret - and if Emily can’t escape it in time, she may become part of it.
