Bits & Pieces Sometimes to survive, you have to give up part of yourself. Who is Abigail? It’s a question even she can’t answer. At fourteen, her life has been consumed by caring for her damaged mother. When tragedy strikes, Abigail is uprooted from her bleak inner city flat and thrust into the grandeur of her estranged uncle’s country estate. Silenus House is a maze of echoing corridors and gloomy rooms, filled with treasures from around the world – statues whose eyes seem to follow Abigail, artifacts that hint at sinister histories. The sprawling house and gardens offer Abigail the chance to finally have what has been denied her – the freedom to be a child. Her Uncle Alistair is welcoming. His three children are not. The way they scrutinise Abigail makes her skin crawl. It’s as if they’re sizing her up for something. As she struggles to fit into this new world, she begins to sense that a darkness lies at the heart of Silenus House. At night, strange noises seep through her bedroom ceiling and resonate in the walls. The deeper Abigail is drawn into the family’s bizarre routines, the more she suspects that her arrival at Silenus House was not an act of kindness but the continuation of a legacy spanning generations – one that demands a price she may not be willing to pay. |
