The Witch

The Witch by Freida McFadden

From Freida McFadden, the bestselling author of The Housemaid, comes The Witch, a chilling psychological thriller filled with dark family secrets, eerie encounters and unexpected twists. When a centuries-old mansion becomes the setting for a series of disturbing events, one woman must uncover the truth behind a past that refuses to remain buried.

After losing her job and apartment, Julia Barlow returns to her family's seventeenth-century estate, Pemberton, in rural Massachusetts. Hoping for a fresh start and time with her ageing grandmother, she instead finds herself caught in a mystery involving unexplained occurrences, a woman accused of witchcraft in 1692 and secrets that could put her in danger.
