A PERFECT SCIENCE, PERFECTLY APPLIED...


Dr. Robert Wheatleigh is the ideal family man - an impeccable father and husband, admired by all.


Except, perhaps, by Samantha, the young woman he has just kidnapped.


Alone and afraid, in a dark, windowless room, she awakes to the sound of screaming.


For, underneath his veneer of perfection, Robert guards a terrible - and difficult to stomach - secret.

The Homestead is a literary thriller which follows Robert, a sophisticated doctor, and his charming family, including his troubled son Alexander - and Samantha, his latest captive. Against a backdrop of unsettling domesticity, Alexander must come to terms with his family's traditions, and the multi-generational struggles inherent in their peculiar, and yet oddly relatable, way of life. All the while, Samantha must endure unspeakable horrors and find a way to escape - before it's too late.
