House of Skin
All it needs to live again is fresh blood!
Â
Myles Carver is dead. But his estate, Watermere, lives on, waiting for a new Carver to move in. Myles€s wife, Annabel, is dead too, but she is also waiting, lying in her grave in the woods. For nearly half a century she was responsible for a nightmarish reign of terror, and she€s not prepared to stop now. She is hungry to live again€¦and her unsuspecting nephew, Paul, will be the key.
Â
Julia Merrow has a secret almost as dark as Watermere€s. But when she and Paul fall in love they think their problems might be over. How can they know what Fate€"and Annabel€"have in store for them? Who could imagine that what was once a moldering corpse in a forest grave is growing stronger every day, eager to take her rightful place amongst the horrors of Watermere?
