The Secret of Cold Hill by Peter James is the spine-chilling follow-up to The House on Cold Hill. Now a smash-hit stage play.Cold Hill House has been razed to the ground by fire, replaced with a development of ultra-modern homes. Gone with the flames are the violent memories of the house's history, and a new era has begun.Although much of Cold Hill Park is still a construction site, the first two families move into their new houses. For Jason and Emily Danes, this is their forever home, and for Maurice and Claudette Penze-Weedell, it's the perfect place to live out retirement. Despite the ever present rumble of cement mixers and diggers, Cold Hill Park appears to be the ideal place to live. But looks are deceptive and it's only a matter of days before both couples start to feel they are not alone in their new homes.There is one thing that never appears in the estate agent brochures: nobody has ever survivedbeyond forty in Cold Hill House and no one has ever truly left ...… (mehr)

This s the follow-up to The House on Cold Hill. I was really looking forward to reading this as I had liked the first book but, unfortunately, it felt as if I was reading the first book again with just name changes. It’s such a shame as I started to get bored because I knew what was going to happen. ( )

Very good ghost story, much less gory than Peter James' norm ( )

Peter James cold write an instruction manual for installing toilets and I would eagerly read every single word of it. I've read all of the Roy Grace books that he has written thus far and always eagerly await the next one...I think this Cold Hill series is going to be the same. They are a universe apart in subject matter from the Roy Grace series but they are every bit as fantastic. There is a big difference in the subject matter...Roy Grace is mystery & suspense genre,,,Cold Hill is terror at it's very best. Read The House on Cold Hill first so that you will have a clue what is happening here...as if we really do. Please Mr. James...write more of this series and do it sooner rather than later. ( )

The Secret of Cold Hill by Peter James is simply a ghost story and who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned ghost story and what better setting than the English countryside. Emily and Jason Danes have decided to buy a house in the country and the one they fall in love with is a new build on an estate previously occupied by an old mansion. When they move in, they realize that there are few other residents with the exception of the eccentric older couple across the way: Maurice and Claudette Penze-Weedell. Before long, the young couple begin to notice that all is not well in the new home. Sounds are heard and sightings begin to appear in the homes of the Danes and the Penze-Weedell. You will have to read this book to learn more. Close the curtains and turn up all the lights: you are in for quite a story. Thank you to Pan Macmillan and NetGalley for the e-ARC in exchange for an honest review. ( )

'There are, of course, no skeletons in this attic!' the estate agent said with a wink, as she threw open the door with a flourish and ushered her clients into the loft space.
