Das verborgene Zimmer

When Sylvie Durand receives a letter calling her back to her family's abandoned estate in Provence, she knows she must go. In the midst of a sultry summer filled with heatwaves and devastating fires in the countryside, the single mother travels to La Rêverie with her youngest daughter Emma in tow, despite her determination to keep Emma away from this place at all costs. Back in her old home, memories resurface: the ghost of Élodie, Sylvie's first child, looms ominously over the house. Élodie with the golden hair. Élodie, who knew exactly how to get what she wanted. Élodie, who is still whispered about in the village. As Sylvie risks losing herself in thoughts of what happened to Élodie ten summers ago, the situation at La Rêverie spirals more and more out of control. Kate Riordan tells the story of a mother fighting against the shadows of her past—to save what she loves. The Hidden Room is a gripping novel that will leave no one indifferent.
