The Girl in the Photograph — Kirsty Ferry

A woman's love of impressionist art draws her into a ghostly mystery along the North Yorkshire coastline. Staying alone in a sprawling, long-abandoned estate in Yorkshire would be madness to some. On the other hand, art enthusiast Lissy de Luca is looking forward to the isolationand to beginning her research into the Staithes Group. It was here, more than a century ago, that the roiling seas and towering cliffs inspired the artistic passions of the famed commune. For Lissy, one of the most inspiring sights is the imposing Sea Scarr Hall itselfbut the longer she stays, the stranger things get. There is the lonely figure who strolls the cove at night, and a hidden painting that is both seductive and unnerving. And then there's the photograph Lissy finds of a young girlone so unnaturally beautiful and so eerily familiar. Each discovery is leading Lissy to a chilling conclusion. She's not alone at all. Those who once occupied the shadows of the manor house have a message for her. And they're going to make sure she gets it. It's a matter of life and death.
