Tideswell by Phill Featherstone

Tideswell, once a thriving fishing village on England’s east coast, now lies broken, its cliffs crumbling, its streets haunted by suspicion and loss.

When Alice returns to clear her missing sister, Holly’s, cottage, she expects only dust and silence. Instead, she uncovers secrets buried deep in her family’s past: whispers of witchcraft, disturbing artwork echoing her own nightmares, and a community hostile to outsiders.

As storms gather and malevolence mounts, Alice is forced to confront not only the mystery of Holly’s disappearance but also the unraveling of her marriage and her sense of self.

Torn between truth and illusion, family secrets and manipulation, Alice must summon the courage to reclaim her life before she, too, is drowned by Tideswell’s shadows.
