Anna is facing a difficult challenge — an idyllic vacation with her family in Italy. Anna is a white crow in her family: both her older sister and twin brother, and her parents do not hide their disappointment with her fate and career. However, Anna is determined to enjoy the wine and the atmosphere of rural Italy. But the charming old house they rented for their vacation is notorious in the area, and Anna is haunted by strange visions. She wants to understand what's going on, but maybe some doors shouldn't be opened. And it's not just about family secrets... This eerie and ironic novel about family squabbles, obsession and revenge is an elegant interpretation of the classic "cursed house" storyline, which is worth reading if you like toxic families, the atmosphere of an Italian summer, "The Ghost of the House on the Hill" and "Mexican Gothic".
