On a sultry summerâs day in 1980, five friends stumble upon an abandoned lakeside cottage hidden deep in the English countryside.

But as the seasons change, tensions begin to rise and when an unexpected visitor appears at their door, nothing will be the same again.Three decades later, Lila arrives at the same remote cottage. With her marriage in crisis, she finds solace in renovating the tumbledown house. Little by little she wonders about the previous inhabitants. How did they manage in such isolation? Why did they leave in such a hurry, with their belongings still strewn about? Most disturbing of all, why can t she shake the feeling that someone might be watching her?The Shadow Year is a story of secrets, tragedy, lies and betrayal. Itâs a tale that explores the light and dark of human relationships and the potential the past has to not only touch our present, but also to alter our future.
