'As a school psychologist, Georgia’s mother Anya should be used to dealing with scared adolescents. However, it’s very different when the girl who needs help is your own child. Meanwhile, Georgia’s father is racked with a guilt he can’t share; and when Zac, Georgia’s younger brother, stumbles on an unlikely truth, the Turner family’s relationships really begin to unravel. But it will be the stranger heading for their house who will finally cause their walls of secrets to crumble, and leave one of them running through the countryside into terrible danger.
'Set against the stark, rugged beauty of England’s Lake District, The Spirit Road is a timeless tale with a modern twist. It is about what happens to a family when the lies used to betray and protect one another are pushed into an unyielding and unforgiving light.'
