Last Countess of Caerhaven

Four governesses have fled Caerhaven Keep. The fifth has nowhere left to run.Disgraced and out of options, Sophie Lane takes the only post a woman with her past can get: governess at a half-ruined keep on the Cornish cliffs, where four governesses have fled in three years and the last Countess walked into the sea. The earl is courteous and cold. His daughter has not spoken since her mother drowned. And something in the house weeps through the floor at three in the morning.Sophie was warned. She came anyway — and Caerhaven does not give up its dead. A wing kept locked. A village that falls silent at the wrong question. A kindness too smooth to trust, and a past that has followed her farther than she ran. The longer she stays, the more she loves the silent child and the haunted earl — and the more she fears the house means to keep her, too.To save the child, Sophie must open the door the keep holds shut and face what waits behind it — before the sea, the dread, or the danger closing in takes the only family she has left.For readers of Rebecca, The Turn of the Screw, and Susanna Kearsley: a candlelit gothic with a real mystery breathing under the dread.Step inside Caerhaven.
