Description:
Behind the genteel facade of the Bayne house lies a world of secrets, despair, and quiet desperation. Mrs. Bayne, an aging widow bound by societal propriety, rules over her small domain alongside her spinster sister Margaret, whose loneliness has become a consuming shadow. Adding a fragile glimmer of hope is Holly, the youngest, whose beauty and vibrancy are slipping away with each day that Furness Brooks, a charming but indecisive playboy, delays his proposal.
When Howard Warrington, a bond salesman, rents a room in their home, he steps into a suffocating atmosphere of old grudges and buried pain. What begins as an opportunity for cheap lodging turns into a nightmare as Howard witnesses the unraveling lives of the Bayne women. And when Margaret’s despair leads to a chilling act of self-destruction, Howard is drawn deeper into their fractured world—a place from which escape may be harder than he imagined.
Rinehart’s ''Two Flights Up'' is a gripping psychological drama that explores the darkness lurking behind closed doors, where societal expectations and personal tragedy collide in haunting ways.
