Description

A locked room holds secrets. Elsie is sent to her late husband's crumbling country estate, The Bridge, to see out her pregnancy. With her new servants resentful and the local villagers hostile, she is left with only her husband's awkward cousin for company. However, inside her new home lies a surprise: a locked room, a two-hundred-year-old diary, and a painted wooden figure - a Silent Companion - that bears a striking resemblance to Elsie herself. As she navigates her new life, Elsie uncovers a dark history and a mysterious presence that seems to be watching her. The lines between reality and the past begin to blur, and Elsie must confront the truth about her husband's death and the secrets that have been hidden in the house for centuries. A chilling and atmospheric tale of love, loss, and the supernatural, The Silent Companions is a gripping story that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
