Livro que deu origem ao filme com Tom Hiddlestone e Jessica Chastain. Edith Cushing, uma jovem da era vitoriana, alimenta o sonho de escrever um livro. Ainda que, segundo ela mesma, seja uma misantropa irritadiça, não é diferente das jovens de sua época. Porém, há algo tenebroso em seu passado. Aos 10 anos, Edith sofreu dois grandes traumas: o falecimento de sua mãe e, três semanas depois, o encontro com um fantasma — a Sr. Cushing, sua própria mãe. Ainda hoje Edith se lembra daquela noite: o tique-taque do relógio, o ranger das tábuas do assoalho, o farfalhar do robe de seda com o qual a mãe fora enterrada, o estalido dos ossos sob a pele que já definhava, a mão decomposta em seu ombro... e um recado enigmático. Sem medir esforços para realizar seu sonho, ela acaba conhecendo Sir Thomas Sharpe, um homem misterioso, dono de terras na Inglaterra e de uma mente criativa como a dela. Isso logo desperta o interesse da jovem, que busca mais informações sobre ele e sobre Allerdale Hall, a propriedade ancestral da família Sharpe. No entanto, o que Edith não encontra em suas pesquisas são os segredos terríveis guardados pelo nobre inglês, que irão assombrá-la para sempre.
