There’s a lot of scene setting: it’s 1978, and Rina has been unceremoniously left at her Aunt Agatha’s house by her mother. She has no more contact with her mother after this.
2019, and Rina’s niece, Cate, is searching for her aunt as her father is seriously ill and wants to see his sister for the last time.
But as Cate finds out more about her aunt, the more sinister are her findings and the more unfriendly the people she encounters.
There’s some ancient folklore, sketchy traditions and a rather interesting ending.
I listened to this on audiobook (Xigxag), which probably helped along the bits that tended to drag (1978 was a very talkative time), but all in all, this was a good read/ listen!

In this, Pratt plays LA cop Chris Raven, who has just 90 minutes to prove his innocence whilst strapped into a chair that is counting down to lethal injection, over just who killed his wife. The bulk of this movie is thus carried largely on Pratt's shoulders (supported by Rebecca Ferguson's AI), with extensive use of video-cam footage as his character carries out an investigation without being physically present at the crime scene.
And, yes, the identity of the real killer is pretty obvious from early on.
