Some houses drain your bank accounts. This one may devour your soul…..
*****
Newly divorced Allison has bought herself a fresh start: a historical, mysterious, 123-year-old house with a wraparound porch, intricate carvings, and all the character that would make an amazing bed-and-breakfast.
Her new beginning is in need of some tender loving care, and bottled-up Allison has all that to give… and more.
Yet something or someone stalks the shadows of the home, toys with her mind, and spurs disturbing waking dreams.
Perhaps Allison can drive out the demons of decay while fixing the plumbing and repairing the electrical wiring – and make the house a home in time to salvage her life and embark on her new livelihood. What else can she do, with most of her divorce settlement money tied up in the down payment? And what will she do when the house itself seems to live?
This renovation is not what Allison was expecting. The house is calling for a restoration, and it’s yearning to wrap its hardwood bones around Allison until her barriers break and their doors open wide.
Won’t you join them?
