A modest man whose life has settled into quiet routine is jolted when his wife, restless and yearning for a change, insists they begin house‑hunting. Their search leads them to a seemingly respectable property on Lamb’s Terrace, a place that promises a fresh start but immediately raises unsettling questions. As they step through its rooms, both husband and wife feel an inexplicable tension that hints the house carries more than just old furniture.
Soon, an unexpected visitor and a series of curious clues draw them into a web of rumors, old friendships, and whispered warnings about the dwelling’s past. Together they must balance skepticism with a growing sense of unease, confronting secrets that threaten to upend their tranquil world. The story unfolds with careful observation and a touch of humor, inviting listeners to wonder just how far a house can influence the lives of those who enter it.

A hugely prolific Victorian storyteller, he turned experiences from the Australian goldfields and colonial New Zealand into popular novels full of drama, mystery, and human feeling. His life moved through journalism, printing, and theater as easily as it did through fiction.
