What to expect

Don't miss the eerie, bone-chilling and twisty thriller about how far we go to protect our darkest secrets, for fans of C.J. Tudor, Riley Sager and Cass Green.

Secrets won't stay in the dark forever…

When young Kimberley Painter vanishes without a trace, her disappearance sends shockwaves through the local community.

Nearly twenty years later, her bones are discovered in the shadowy woodlands surrounding an eerie manor house.

Now, Detective Alessandra Cano must uncover the mystery of what really happened to the little girl all those years ago.

But as Alessa delves deeper, disturbing clues begin to haunt her at every turn, hinting that Kimberley's death is just one piece of a twisted puzzle.

With the clock ticking, Alessa races toward a chilling truth she never expected, as the past claws its way into the light.

Because secrets, however well-hidden, won't stay buried forever…

The Shadows of Hill Manor is a heart-pounding thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
