A novel from Eve Chase, author of The Glass House and The Birdcage.

A glittering family. A Notting Hill house. Step into their secrets . . .
Notting Hill, London. Lou Parker's famous mother walks out of their pink front door and doesn't return home by midnight, or the midnight after... Looking after her little brother, trying to piece together where their mother might be, Lou ventures into a different world - far from the fancy terraces - filled with ramshackle antique shops, shadowy figures. A place where time seems to have stopped. And Lou must protect her brother. At all costs.
Twenty-one years - 7665 midnights - later. The new owner of a Notting Hill house starts excavating a basement, oblivious to what might lie beneath. While in a writer's Saint-Germain apartment, a mobile phone rings...and the clock starts ticking again.
Sweeping from vibrant London streets to the boulevards of Paris to an old English country house, The Midnight Hour is a story about the dark secrets hidden within a golden family - and a woman desperately trying to turn back the hands of time before it's too late.
