Immersing yourself in a book is dangerous. Not everyone finds their way back.
Agnes Corey, a young editor at a small publishing house, receives an invitation from the enigmatic writer Veronica St. Clair to help her write a sequel to her legendary novel, The Secret of Stormy Heights, which was published thirty years ago and became a sensation. Since then, St. Clair has lived a reclusive life: the novel's publication coincided with a devastating fire that left her blind.
Agnes arrives at an ancient estate in the Hudson Valley—once a mental hospital for "lost women," now the writer's dark and mysterious home. She soon begins to discover hidden hints in the manuscript about the real, terrifying events that inspired St. Clair's first novel. The line between fiction and truth gradually blurs, and an unsolved crime from the past suddenly takes on personal meaning for Agnes. The deeper she delves into someone else's story, the more she feels threatened—both for her life and her sanity.
To understand where the novel ends and the truth begins, Agnes will have to uncover what's truly hidden within the walls of Stormy Pass—and why these secrets are so carefully guarded. In her search for answers, Agnes risks learning more than she bargained for, because sometimes someone else's story is your own.
