What really happened to the girl who walked into the woods and vanished forever?
For disgraced professor Matthew Merle, the inheritance of his grandfather's crumbling mansion is both a burden and an offer of safe haven. His childhood friend Claire, a psychiatrist, desperately needs a haven of her own after one of her patients unleashes his dark side. At turning points in their lives, it's inevitable that they should return to the past. And to Merle House. It's been waiting for them.
It's a never-forgotten mystery that clings like a shadow in a short story about dark memories and inescapable fears.
