The Family at No.1 by Caroline Mitchell

Paperback, Amazon Publishing

When estate agent Laura Bradley is asked to sell number 1 Aspen Hollow, it feels like a dream come true. The house is beautiful―five bedrooms and a perfect garden, surrounded by lush woodland. Laura loves finding a family their dream home, even as each night she returns to a cramped single room.

Laura tries to ignore the red paint thrown at the walls of the house, the strange noises upstairs and the threatening messages she is receiving. Whatever its history, the beautiful house deserves a second chance. But by the time Laura finds out what really happened to the family at number 1, it is far too late. Someone doesn’t want the house to be sold, for its secrets to surface. They have killed before and they are willing to kill again to keep the truth hidden…
