The Circular Staircase

About this book

In the darkness of endless corridors, when the walls fall silent and begin to whisper, 'Rachel Innes' discovers that the serenity she sought in the countryside of 'Sunnyside' was nothing but a gleaming facade for a nightmare crouching in the corners. The tale begins with a spinster who thought she had retired from the city's noise to spend a quiet summer, only to find herself at the heart of a whirlpool of mysterious crimes that makes the mind doubt everything around it. Between a circular staircase hiding behind its thresholds carefully buried secrets, and metallic sounds breaking the silence of the night to announce the approach of the unknown, events escalate in a brilliant blend of psychological horror and classic detective investigation. 'Sunnyside' was no longer that sunlit house but became a stage for suspicious disappearances, shadows appearing and vanishing at dawn, and a box of secrets refusing to stay closed. This work is not merely a murder story but a journey into human consciousness when facing fear head-on. In a literary style combining delicacy of description with sharp suspense, it takes.
