Description
Alone in the world, Elspeth Swansome takes the position of nanny to a family on the remote Scottish island of Skelthsea. Her charge, Mary, hasn't uttered a word since the sudden death of the twin, William—just days after their former nanny disappeared. No one will speak of what happened to William. Just as no one can explain they hypnotic lullabies sung in empty corridors. Or the strange dolls that appear in abandoned rooms. Or the fiant whistling that comes in the night...
As the nights draw in and weather makes passage to the mainland impossible, Elspeth finds herself trapped. But is this house haunted by the ghosts of the past? Or the secrets of the living?
