Description

Bells that ring themselves, music plays in empty rooms, and ghosts seem to climb out of wardrobes. For Maggie Holt, these are the details of a story that made her family famous, but she never believed them. Twenty-five years ago, she and her parents moved to Baneberry Hall, a Victorian estate in the Vermont woods, where they spent just twenty days before fleeing in the dead of night. Maggie's father, Ewan, later recounted their ordeal in a horror memoir, House of Horrors, which became a worldwide phenomenon. Now, when Maggie inherits Baneberry Hall after her father's death, she returns to renovate the house to prepare it for sale. However, her homecoming is anything but warm. People from the past seem to lurk in the shadows, and locals are unhappy that their small town has been made infamous. As Maggie experiences strange occurrences that echo her father's book, she starts to wonder if what he wrote was more fact than fiction. Alternating between Maggie's uneasy homecoming and chapters from her father's book, this story reveals a house with long-buried secrets and a woman's quest to uncover them - a truth that's far more terrifying than any haunting.
