1952, Yorkshire - Isabel Carey, newly married to an overworked doctor, struggles to adapt to her life, upstairs the endless pacing of a hostile landlady, nearby a deserted WW II airfield and hidden in a cupboard an RAF greatcoat which for warmth she lays on her bed. Then one night there is a tapping on the window . . . A delicious, elegant ghost story that like all good ones continues to haunt long after you turn the last page.
