Mourning the recent death of her husband, Elsie tries to settle in and prepare herself for the arrival of her baby but The Bridge’s secrets drive her into terrifying new territory.


Widow Elsie Bainbridge is heavily pregnant when she moves to The Bridge, a dilapidated country estate for her confinement. For inside her new home lies a locked room, and beyond that door lies a two-hundred-year-old diary and a deeply unsettling painted wooden figure – a Silent Companion – that bears a striking resemblance to Elsie herself… With her new servants resentful and the local villagers actively hostile, Elsie only has her husband’s awkward cousin for company. Newly married, newly widowed Elsie is sent to see out her pregnancy at her late husband’s crumbling country estate, The Bridge.
