Officially, she's there to check in on her ageing grandmother. Unofficially, she's hoping the old house will give her a place to disappear.Instead, Pemberton begins to unravel her.Every night, the grandfather clock stops at exactly 3:41 a.m. The lights flicker without warning. And a disembodied voice cries for help outside Julia's bedroom door.As Julia digs into the house's dark history, she uncovers the story of a woman executed for witchcraft in 1692-and realises the past may not be finished with Pemberton yet. When decades of family lies begin to surface, Julia must confront a terrifying truth: Pemberton may be haunted by women whose voices refuse to stay silent.The Witch is Freida McFadden's tantalising foray into the supernatural, offering up a chilling, twist-filled thriller about secrets: those we inherit, those we bury, and those people will burn to keep silent.TropesSupernatural ThrillerWitchcraftAncestral CurseAlso by Freida McFadden:The DivorceDear DebbieThe IntruderThe TenantThe CrashThe BoyfriendThe TeacherThe CoworkerWard DNever LieThe InmateThe HousemaidThe Housemaid's SecretThe Housemaid's WeddingThe Housemaid is WatchingDo You Remember?Do Not DisturbThe Locked DoorWant to Know a Secret?One by OneThe Wife UpstairsThe Perfect SonThe ExThe Surrogate MotherBrain DamageDead Med
