Spooky
Chillingly brilliant

The plot:
Elspeth Swansome takes up a position of nanny to a family on the remote Scottish island of Skelthsea. Her charge, Mary, hasn’t uttered a word since the sudden death of her twin, William – just days after their former nanny disappeared.
No one will speak of what happened.
Not a single soul can explain the hypnotic lullabies sung in empty corridors.
No one can explain the strange dolls that appear in abandoned rooms. Nor the faint whistling that comes in the night . . .
