Synopsis

"Catherine's last job ended badly. Corporate bullying at a top antiques publication saw her fired and forced to leave London, but she was determined to get her life back. A new job and a few therapists later, things look much brighter. Especially when a challenging new project presents itself: to catalogue the late M.H. Mason's wildly eccentric cache of antique dolls and [preserved animals] ... Catherine can't believe her luck when Mason's elderly niece invites her to stay at Red House itself, where she maintains the collection until [the] niece exposes her to the dark message behind her uncle's 'art'"--
