When Ingrid flees a violent husband to become a housekeeper in the Scottish Highlands, she discovers the family she works for has a much darker history than her own.

Who haunts Strathbairn? Why are the adult McCleod children at each other’s throats? And why does the youngest sneak off at night? As Ingrid searches for answers, she grows ever more fearful that her husband will track her down.

Set in late 19th century Scottish Highlands, WHAT HAPPENED AT THE ABBEY is a gothic mystery brimming with intrigue, ghostly drama, and family secrets.

I really enjoyed listening to this book. There is a growing sense of unease from the beginning and even more so as the tale unfolds. I so hope there is a second book!

Excellent storyline

Encouraged to try this book, and something of a departure from my more contemporary tastes, I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed the story. Made all the more enjoyable by the fabulous narration by Kate Walsh - I’ve listened to a lot of books, and she’s right up there! Brilliant at creating tensions and embodying the diverse characters, I could (& did!) listen to her all day.

Outstanding narration
