A book set very much in it's time and location. A group of young people head into the country to a house owned by the family. On the way there a number of incidents occur which result in them being cut off from the city and other members of the family. Things occur which lead to a deepening sense of dread, maybe it's the characters or the style but I found it hard to like any of them.
The plot is good and drives the short story on, did read it in two sittings.
