What is Our House about?

Fi Lawson is shocked to see strangers moving into her house when she arrives home one day.

Her family’s possessions have gone missing and she has no idea why her home appears to be for sale. 

Panic continues to set in when she struggles to get hold of her estranged husband, Bram. 

She discovers her husband has disappeared and a web of secrets and lies starts to unfold. 

The series will switch between the present day and flashbacks of the couple’s life together as the truth about their relationship comes to light. 

 

Candlish‘s book of the same name was published in 2018 and within the story, Fi and her husband have a co-parenting arrangement where each parent spends a few nights a week with their two sons at the family home.

The official blurb for the book adds: “But the system built to protect their family ends up putting them in terrible jeopardy. In a domino effect of crimes and misdemeanours, the nest comes tumbling down.”

Bram and their children are nowhere to be seen and Fi realises she may not have known her husband at all. 

But he is not the only one with something to hide, so fans will have to wait and see what skeletons are in the closet. 

Our House is in production for ITV.
