Marlow has always lived in unusual places. But when she accepts a position as a live-in property guardian, she finds herself moving somewhere she swore she’d never return to.

Right from the start, she knows it’s a terrible mistake. The elegant Victorian school is due to be turned into luxury apartments, but its eerie, empty corridors are full of Marlow’s worst memories.

And now something sinister is happening on the site. One of the other tenants has disappeared without warning, and Marlow suspects that the nine other guardians know far more than they’re letting on. She’s determined to find out what happened to the missing woman – but which of these strangers can she trust?

And can she uncover the truth before her own past catches up with her?

My Thoughts:

When Marlow moves to live in a property as a live in guardian, she cannot believe it is her childhood school. But is this a good idea as bad things happened when she was at school and the past has never left her mind. When sinister things start happening, Marlow questions who is at stake here and who really are the other guardians and what do they want from her? I was gripped from the start, it had a good pace to it a good thriller. I found it tense, chilling and gripping and read it in a day. I just had to know what was going on. The ending blew me away. I need to read more of Lesley’s books now as this one was brilliant. I would definitely recommend if you like a good thriller.
