What to expect
Others demand to be feared.
The year is 1984. Sally Cooper arrives in town with nothing but a suitcase and her dying son. Desperate to start fresh, she takes a job at the Crowford Hoy pub, clinging to the hope that this quaint seaside town might finally bring peace. But tragedy strikes before she even has a chance to unpack her dreams – and soon, Sally is left with only one impossible wish: to see her son one last time.
Months pass. The pub’s regulars talk of ghosts, of strange sightings and cold whispers in the night, but Tommy never appears. Just when Sally is ready to give up, a friend suggests something unthinkable – what if the spirits are waiting for her to reach out first?
What begins as a quiet ritual soon unravels into something far darker. The shadows in the Crowford Hoy are older and more dangerous than Sally imagined. Ghosts with unfinished business are stirring, and some don’t want peace – they want revenge.
Who was Annie Ashton, the girl who vanished without a trace?
Why is the spirit of Mildred Weaver burning with fury?
And once the veil between worlds is lifted… can Sally ever force it shut again?
