Behind the elegant façade of No. 28, a Victorian terraced house in a tree-lined avenue, five women try to outrun the darkness that threatens to consume them. Cloistered in separate apartments, seeking ways to fill the hours of solitude, their privacy is assured, each woman remaining oblivious to a strange secret that binds them all. The owner of No. 28, and occupant of the attic apartment, is unravelling at an alarming rate. Her psychiatrist, an enigmatic figure coaxed out of retirement, believes he is more than qualified to take on Alana’s case. But, as the sessions with his client dive deeper, the line between memory and fantasy blurs, and he begins to question his own view of reality. Those who cross paths with the residents of No. 28 find themselves drawn into a growing maelstrom of deception and chaos. And when the storm breaks, lives will be claimed. Darkly humorous and deliciously unsettling, No. 28 is a suspense-laced study of fractured minds and fragile alliances. A cautionary tale, it explores the tapestry of invisible strands that binds the fate of unsuspecting souls, and the destructive forces unleashed when the anchoring thread snaps.
