Description
Four students in Bedford hear a haunting voice singing from their neighbour's home. The beautiful melody is coming from Madeleine Delaney, a reclusive woman who never leaves her house during the day.
But there's more to Madeleine than meets the eye. A traumatic event has driven her existence for over twenty years, and she's trapped in a cycle of fear and desperation. Her life changes forever when she witnesses a horrific crime, and it's only kindness from one girl that helps her escape the danger that follows.
As they flee London, Madeleine and Ellen must leave behind everything they love to survive. This gripping story is a heart-wrenching tale of survival, friendship, and the power of human connection.
