Synopsis

At twenty-four Kate marries her first love, Campbell Rivers, and becomes mistress of Quarry House, set brooding and isolated on the Yorkshire moors. Kate is blissfully happy, falling in love should mean happiness and fulfilment, but gradually, it changes to a life of plots and ghosts from the past. She begins to sense the menace that surrounds the house. There is her husband's brooding nature, rumours concerning the fates of his two previous wives, and Kate's fears for Cam's three young daughters. As her anxiety becomes more acute, she realises that her own life is at stake. For her very survival she must unearth the sinister secret of Quarry House - before it is too late.
