An eerie old Scottish manor in the middle of nowhere that’s now hers.

Ailsa Calder has inherited half of a house. The other half belongs to a man who disappeared without a trace twenty-seven years ago. Her father.

So when Ailsa encounters an intruder in the dead of night, it becomes apparent that behind the manor’s careless, rugged beauty lies a very real threat…
