The Witch

Named one of the TIME100 Most Influential People of 2026 "I enjoy Freida McFadden…The books are engrossing and her sense of humour is sharp and dark. Vengeance comes with a twist and is satisfying" – STEPHEN KING From #1 Sunday Times bestselling author Freida McFadden comes a sharp, unsettling thriller about two women, past and present, united by the grounds of an estate and one deadly question: is the danger that haunts them magic—or madness? Some secrets don't die—they wait. When Julia Barlow loses her job and her apartment, she has nowhere left to go but Pemberton, her family's sprawling seventeenth-century estate in rural Massachusetts. Officially, she's there to check in on her ageing grandmother. Unofficially, she's hoping the old house will give her a place to disappear. Instead, Pemberton begins to unravel her. Every night, the grandfather clock stops at exactly 3:41 a.m. The lights flicker without warning. And a disembodied voice cries for help outside Julia's bedroom door. As Julia digs into the house's dark history, she uncovers the story of a woman executed for witchcraft in 1692—and realises the past may not be finished with Pemberton yet. When decades of family lies begin to surface, Julia must confront a terrifying truth: Pemberton may be haunted by women whose voices refuse to stay silent. The Witch is Freida McFadden's tantalising foray into the supernatural, offering up a chilling, twist-filled thriller about secrets: those we inherit, those we bury, and those people will burn to keep silent.
