Summary
When Rachel marries dark, handsome David, everything seems to fall into place. Swept from single life in London to the beautiful Carnhallow House in Cornwall, she gains wealth, love and a stepson, Jamie. But then Jamie makes a chilling prediction, and Rachel's perfect life begins to unravel.
Haunted by the spectre of David's late wife - Jamie's real mother - Rachel finds herself drawn to the deserted mines where she plunged to her death three years prior. As Rachel starts digging into the past, she begins to grow suspicious of her husband. Why is he so reluctant to discuss Jamie's behaviour? And what exactly happened to cause his ex-wife's untimely suicide?
With December looming, Rachel begins to fear there might be truth in Jamie's words: 'you will die at Christmas'.

Brilliant Excellent story keeps you listening
Loved this story, this is the second book I have read by this author, the first being the Ice Twins.
Both books have an eerie almost supernatural vibe, will read more by this author

Couldn’t stop listening!
I found this book extremely engrossing. The Cornish setting created a brilliant, atmospheric setting to a story about history, romance and madness. I just had to keep listening until the end.

Corniche mystery with great twist
This download is more about great narration than anything else. Imogen Church is spellbinding as a woman on the edge of madness. This is top class acting and goes way beyond the story itself. Well worth a credit!

The FirexChild
This book was well narrated. I loved the descriptions of Cornwall. It gripped me from the beginning to end I could not put the book down. I would recommend it as a book to read in the winter on a cold winters night

Average read, made less than average by the awful over the top narration. Would not recommend.

good
This book started off slowly, but I am glad I persevered. Imogen Church is a great narrator (one of my favourites). I would recommend a listen.
