The Caretakers

Documentary filmmaker Tessa Shepherd made her name freeing a man she was certain had been wrongly convicted of murder — until he killed again, and the guilt and the press collapsed her life.

Estranged from her sister after their mother's sudden death, Tessa retreats to an unexpected inheritance: Fallbrook, a derelict, isolated estate kept by two elderly sisters who have guarded its secrets for decades.

Drawn into the story of the Cooke family, who once lived and died within its walls, Tessa finds the house giving up a darkness that reaches back into her own life. A gothic thriller from Eliza Maxwell.
