For inside her new home lies a locked room, and beyond that door lies a two-hundred-year-old diary and a deeply unsettling painted wooden figure &#8211; a Silent Companion &#8211; that bears a striking resemblance to Elsie herself&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>P\u00e5 h\u00f6sten \u00e4r det perfekt att plocka upp en sp\u00f6khistoria! Boken utspelar sig p\u00e5 1800-talet j\u00e4msides med 1600-talet, men p\u00e5 samma plats, The Bridge. Ett gammalt, stort hus i en liten by, d\u00e4r alla verkar avskr\u00e4ckas av b\u00e5de huset och dess inv\u00e5nare. P\u00e5 plats finns tre hush\u00e5llerskor som inte \u00e4r vana med g\u00e4ster. Elsie flyttar in, tillsammans med hennes avlidne makes kusin Sarah, f\u00f6r att v\u00e4nta ut sin graviditet och s\u00f6rja ifred. Det gamla huset d\u00f6ljer m\u00e5nga hemligheter, speciellt en l\u00e5st vind d\u00e4r en m\u00e4rklig tr\u00e4skulptur av en flicka finns, tillsammans med dagb\u00f6cker fr\u00e5n en tidigare sl\u00e4kting. Dagboken avsl\u00f6jar en hel del om det gamla huset och vad som tidigare skett. Tr\u00e4figuren k\u00e4nns obehaglig tycker Elsie, men Sarah vill absolut plocka fram den. Elsie tycker den \u00e4r obehaglig, och snart f\u00e5r hon uppleva varf\u00f6r.<\/div>\n<div>Jag r\u00f6s vid s\u00e5 m\u00e5nga tillf\u00e4llen! I b\u00f6rjan var spr\u00e5ket sv\u00e5rt, ganska gammeldags engelska, men efter f\u00f6rsta hundra sidorna blev det l\u00e4ttare att h\u00e4nga med. P\u00e5 svenska kanske den skulle varit \u00e4nnu b\u00e4ttre. En obehaglig, st\u00e4mningsfull rysare. Mot slutet kunde jag inte l\u00e4gga boken ifr\u00e5n mig. En plot twist fanns ocks\u00e5, ni som l\u00e4st f\u00e5r g\u00e4rna messa mig p\u00e5 Instagram. Mind = blown.<\/div>\n<div>Stort plus f\u00f6r j\u00e4ttefint omslag ocks\u00e5. Det finns ett h\u00e5l i det, d\u00e4r som \u00f6gat syns.
