About
The Coldstone by Patricia Wentworth is a chilling and atmospheric mystery that draws readers into a world of crumbling estates, hidden secrets, and a legacy marked by tragedy. With masterful suspense and a haunting sense of place, Wentworth explores how the past never truly stays buried - especially when the house remembers.
When a young woman arrives at Coldstone Manor to claim an unexpected inheritance, she finds herself stepping into more than a home - she steps into a mystery that has cast a shadow over the estate for generations. The house is cold, remote, and filled with whispers of the past, and soon she begins to suspect that her arrival was not entirely welcome.
Strange occurrences unsettle her - a locked room that no one will speak of, portraits turned to the wall, and stories of a long-dead relative whose fate was never fully explained. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes that someone in the present is determined to keep the past hidden.
With the help of a reluctant ally - a man with secrets of his own - she begins to unravel the threads of a long-forgotten crime. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous her position becomes.
Wentworth expertly blends gothic elements with emotional realism, crafting a story that is as psychologically intense as it is suspenseful. The Coldstone is a tale of memory, identity, and the chilling consequences of silence.
