Freya Timms has come to the Fox and Hounds pub to investigate her sister's disappearance.

Freya Timms arrives at the Fox and Hounds pub to meet a witness with information about her sister's disappearance nine years ago. Read by Debra Baker.

Behind a small iron door in a twisting alley lies Slade House, an eerie mansion that is somehow too large for the space it occupies. Every nine years, a 'guest' is summoned to the house but why has that person been chosen, and by whom? David Mitchell's chilling new novel unfolds over decades and is a spine-tingling, wintry delight.
