A Good House for Children - EN - Kate Collins - Paperback

Most villagers won't go near the Reeve and turn hostile when Orla asks them why. 

Perhaps they're just envious she's moved into a grand old mansion, high on the edge of the Dorset Cliffs. But work on the house turns up unsettling objects Orla wishes had stayed buried. Doors open and close on their own, reflections are not to be trusted and her son Sam is obsessed by his imaginary friends. 

Four decades earlier, in 1976, Lydia moves to Dorset as a nanny for a family grieving their patriarch. Tucked away in a lightless attic by night and left to chase three children through the corridors of the Reeve by day, she too starts to hear and see things that cannot be real.

Both Lydia and Orla realise that the longer they stay at the Reeve, the more deadly certain their need to keep the children safe from whatever lurks inside it.
