## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

October, Yorkshireshire. A crumbling envelope stamped with black wax.

A stranger’s hand slides an invitation across a candlelit dining table. Inside a gothic manor’s vault, wax drips onto Evie’s trembling wrist.

A dead mother’s diary pages curl in the fire.

**Mood tags**: dread, slow-burn
