Title: Lacey's house
Description: Lacey Carmichael leads a solitary life. To her neighbours she is the mad old woman who lives at the end of the lane, crazy but harmless - until she is arrested on suspicion of murder ... When Rachel Moore arrives in the village, escaping her own demons, the two women form an unlikely bond. Unravelling to each other tales of loss and heartache, they become friends. Rachel sees beyond the rumours, believing in Lacey's innocence; but as details of the older woman's life are revealed - some of them monstrous, from a past filled with the ignorance and cruelty of others - Rachel is left questioning where the truth really lies.
