Into the Woods

Synopsis

A haunting tale of family secrets, betrayal, and the shadows of the past from the author of Little Girl Blue. In the summer of 1990, young sisters Caroline and Joanna are sent to stay with their great aunt Dora in the idyllic Gloucestershire village of Witchwood. Still reeling from their father&’s tragic death and their mother&’s grief, Witchwood offers a welcome escape—but the shaded forest hides dark secrets that bring the sisters&’ innocence to a distressing end. Caroline, volatile and longing for attention, becomes fixated on Dean Fry, the handsome local bad boy. When a body is found in the woods, the village becomes a cauldron of suspicion. Caroline&’s false accusation of Dean sets off a chain of devastating consequences as her jealousy and need for validation spiral out of control. Years later, Joanna is forced to confront the trauma of that childhood summer after Caroline&’s sudden, mysterious death in London. Returning to Witchwood, Joanna seeks answers to her sister&’s fear, and as she unravels long-buried secrets, she discovers she can trust few people—and that a menace still lurks in Witchwood. What really happened that fateful summer? And will Joanna be able to survive the impending danger from those trying to bury the truth?Originally published under the title A Place to Lie.Praise for Rebecca Griffiths &“An increasingly tense narrative with stylish writing that keeps her a cut above most of her rivals.&” —The Guardian &“Twisty, atmospheric and elegantly written.&” —Daily Mail &“Chilling.&” —The Sun (UK)
