When travel blogger Evie Lorrigan arrives at the Villa Brocanti resort in Tuscany to review it, she is irritated to find no staff on duty, no phone signal and the pool closed. Undeterred, she decides to explore the Brocanti estate where deep in dense woods she discovers the boarded-up ruin of a massive villa.Her journalistic instincts piqued, Evie searches for and discovers a way in, only to find herself in a terrifying maze of tricks and traps. Prevented from leaving by doors with no handles closing behind her, she is forced to make her way onwards and upwards through elaborately painted rooms and corridors until, when a final door closes behind her, she is trapped in an attic room along with the gruesome remains of a long-dead man.Evie knows nothing about the secretive Brocanti family’s history, nothing about the tyrannical Marchese Salvatore Brocanti, a brilliant artist working in the late 1800s, and nothing about the mysterious disappearance of his wife and children. What Evie does know is that she is trapped in a deserted ruin with no food and little water. And no one knows she is there...
