2000s: An empty house, a crying baby and a mystery to chill you…
The Family Upstairs
What you need to know before your trail
In a large house in London’s fashionable Chelsea, a baby is awake in her cot. Well-fed and cared for, she is happily waiting for someone to pick her up.
In the kitchen lie three decomposing corpses. Close to them is a hastily scrawled note.
They’ve been dead for several days.
Who has been looking after the baby?
And where did they go?
Travel Guide
See Chelsea, London through the eyes of Lisa Jewell
Sixteen Cheyne Walk – a twelve-room, three-storey house, in the affluent suburb of Chelsea, South West London, overlooking the River Thames.
This house is grand yet imposing. It’s a mansion in one of the most exclusive areas of the city. If you get the chance to stay here and even live here, you probably would want to try. Yet this house is where a baby was found crying on its own, three people found dead in other parts of the house. The mystery which has surrounded this house has endured for many years.
Told via three different voices, this is the story of one imposing house and one dark dark secret.
