"Et fængslende mysterium; velskrevet med mindeværdige karakterer og masser af dybe, mørke hemmeligheder." - Kate MortonEngland, 1970. Da familien Harringtons hjem i London brænder ned, flytter mrs. Harrington med sine to børn og hushjælp til Foxcote Manor. De omkringliggende skove er dog ikke så fredfyldte, som de ser ud. En dag finder trettenårige Hera en baby efterladt på deres grund. De undrer sig over, hvor hun kommer fra, men tager hende til sig. Den lille pige spreder glæde og håb og lyser husets mørke kroge op. De beslutter at holde hende hemmelig for omverden, men da et lig dukker op i skoven, knuses deres drøm om at forblive en samlet familie. Fyrre år senere har Sylvie taget en stor beslutning og er gået fra sin utro mand. Hun er klar til at starte på en frisk, men hendes teenagedatter begynder at grave i fortiden og beder Sylvie om hjælp. Det bringer hende til Foxcote Manor, hvor sandheden langsomt falder på plads."Døtrene fra Foxcote Manor handler i sidste ende ikke om et mord eller et uhyggeligt hus, men om familie - dem, vi er født ind i, dem, vi selv skaber - og i særdeleshed dem, vi flygter fra." - The New York Times"Eve Chase er en enestående forfatter, og Døtrene fra Foxcote Manor er indtil videre hendes absolut bedste bog. Ingen beskriver familie så komplekst, elskeligt og aldeles troværdigt som hende." - Lisa Jewell
