Psychic Surveys Companion

After her parents' divorce, five-year old Corinna Greer moves into Blakemort with her mother and brother. Set on the edge of the village of Whitesmith, the only thing attractive about it is the rent. A 'sensitive', Corinna is aware from the start that something is wrong with the house. Very wrong. Christmas is coming but at Blakemort that's not something to get excited about. A house that sits and broods, that calculates and considers, it's then that it lashes out - the attacks endured over five years becoming worse.

In 1977, Minch Point Lighthouse on Skye's most westerly tip was suddenly abandoned by the keeper and his family - no reason ever found. In the decade that followed, it became a haunt for teenagers on the hunt for thrills. In 1987, following her success working on a case with Sussex Police, 25-year-old psychic Ness Patterson is asked to investigate recent happenings at the lighthouse. Local teen Ally Dunn has suffered a breakdown following time spent there and is refusing to speak to anyone.

Ruby Davis runs Psychic Surveys, a high street company specializing in domestic spiritual clearance.

In turn, Jessica inherited her gift from her mother Sarah, and Sarah from Rosamund.

As soon as Ava Kent spots Jed in her local rescue centre, she knows, just as much as he does, they are perfect for each other. It's love at first sight, and despite her husband's misgivings, she offers him a home. Not much is known of Jed, other than he is a stray picked up from the streets of Eastbourne, but he soon proves himself a loyal and loving companion - in fact, he's something of a lifesaver. When Ava suffers the traumatic birth of her first child alone at home, it's Jed that somehow escapes the house to find help.
