A broken heart. An abandoned theatre. A secret waiting to be uncovered.
After heartbreak ends her London stage career, Bridie receives an unlikely lifeline – a crumbling seaside theatre, gifted by a mystery benefactor. It might be the fresh start she is looking for.
But The Little Theatre by the Sea has been closed for decades, and there’s a rumour the theatre is haunted; years ago, an actress mysteriously vanished mid-performance, never to be seen again.
With no money and no plan, Bridie’s fresh start seems impossible until the local community rallies around her, and Jack, a face from her past carrying his own ghosts, offers his help.
Together, they slowly breathe life back into the old theatre, preparing it for its first performance in years.
But as opening night draws closer, Bridie digs deeper into the theatre’s past and uncovers a family secret that ties her to its history – and someone who will do anything to keep it hidden, and the theatre closed forever.
She came to the Suffolk coast to heal and move on. But Bridie soon realises the past has other plans …
