Is her family in danger?
When Allie moves to a quaint old cottage with her husband, it’s their dream home. Nestled in the village of Pluckley, it seems a perfect haven in which to raise their two children. But Pluckley has a reputation. It’s known as England’s most haunted village. And not long after the birth of their new son, Allie begins to notice strange things…
What’s the flash of white she sees moving quickly through the woods to the back of their house? And what’s the strange scratching noise coming from the chimney?
As Allie discovers more about the history of their new home, she uncovers a story of witchcraft and superstition, which casts a long shadow into the present day. And not everything is as it seems. Her family might well be in danger, but it’s a danger none of them could have foreseen…
Bestseller Lisa Hall’s The Woman in the Woods is full of creeping unease and nerve-wracking tension, and will have readers on the edge of their seats…

About the Author
Lisa Hall loves words, reading and everything there is to love about books. She has dreamed of being a writer since she was a little girl and after years of talking about it, was finally brave enough to put pen to paper (and let people actually read it). Lisa lives in a small village in Kent, surrounded by her towering TBR pile, a rather large brood of children, dogs, chickens and ponies and her long-suffering husband. She is also rather partial to eating cheese and drinking wine.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 June 2024Wife cannot put it down!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 October 2021She’s out there. Waiting for you.
Allie, Rav and their children, two year old Mina and newborn baby Leo have moved out of London and into a lovely old cottage in the real life village of Pluckley in Kent, it's their dream home and they're both really excited about village life, but Pluckley is known as England's most haunted village and, not long after moving in, Allie starts experiencing some very weird happenings; strange scratching noises in the chimney, and what's that flash of white she keeps seeing in the woods at the back of the house? The more she hears about the history of their new home, the more certain she is that the place is haunted and her family are far from safe, but who are they really in danger from?
The Woman in the Woods is a tale of witchcraft and superstition, the plot is well crafted with authentic characters and, having read other books by Hall, it's exactly what you come to expect from this hugely talented author. She knows how to draw her readers in like a moth to a flame, hypnotising you from the very first page and keeping you dancing to her rhythm right to the very last one and, just when you think you have it all figured out she drops in a twist that will leave you with your chin on the floor, wondering what the hell just happened, but that's Hall all over, she's the queen of jawdroppers! This is an incredibly creepy and atmospheric read that will have you on the edge of your seat throughout and is the perfect Halloween read. I highly recommend.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 October 2021I love all Lisa Hall’s books and this one was no different, although it is a bit of a departure for her. It is brilliantly written and you never quite know what’s real and what isn’t. It’s creepy in parts so maybe don’t read late at night if you’re alone in an old house! But I raced through it and enjoyed it.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 November 2024Was a good read
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 November 2024This was excellent!
Everything about this was great. I loved the storyline which explores the supposedly haunted house the family move to not long after the birth of their first child. It was engaging, chilling and certainly had me guessing where the storyline was going. It had a great conclusion with brilliant characters. For a psychological thriller it had everything I love!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 October 2021This is one of those deliciously creepy stories that would make for an engrossing TV mini-series. The sense of betrayal permeating through the layers of reality makes it a tense page Turner. The supernatural elements are intertwined expertly, creating atmosphere and mystery. I was left with a number of unanswered questions, however. Definitely a very good read.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 September 2022This book had me gripped… brilliant suspense… such a page turner. So glad I purchased for holiday. Highly recommended
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 December 2022This is such a great story and id highly recommend getting this book either as a gift or for yourself. I'm not going to give anything away about it as it would ruin it for the next person who wants to read these books

1.0 out of 5 stars sooooooo dumb
It was a very misleading book. One that you keep reading because you think there is going to be a great ending only to find it is extremely misleading and disappointing
