East Sussex Coast, 1855. Violet Hargreaves is the daughter of a widowed industrialist, and an aspiring Pre-Raphaelite painter. One day, the naive 18-year-old meets Edwin; a mysterious and handsome man on the beach, who promises her a world beyond the small coastal village she's trapped in. But after ignoring warnings about Edwin, a chain of terrible events begins to unfold for Violet. East Sussex Coast, 2016. For thriller-writer Ella Daniels, the house on the cliff is the perfect place to overcome writer's block, where she decides to move with her small family. But there's a strange atmosphere that settles once they move in - and rumours of historical murders next door begin to emerge. One night, Ella uncovers a portrait of a beautiful young girl named Violet Hargreaves, who went missing at the same time as the horrific crimes, and Ella becomes determined to find out what happened there 160 years ago.
