Clever, twisty, and altogether spine-chilling. . . . [A] deliciously terrifying story. . . .Youll want to read this one after dark, ideally with the wind whistling in the eaves and a window banging somewhere just out of reach. But keep the light switch handy. You just might need it Ruth Ware, Book of the Month\r\n\r\nWhat was it like? Living in that house.\r\n\r\nMaggie Holt is used to such questions. Twenty-five years ago, she and her parents, Ewan and Jess, moved into a rambling Victorian estate called Baneberry Hall. They spent three weeks there before fleeing in the dead of night, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a memoir called House of Horrors. His tale of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon.\r\n\r\nNow, Maggie has inherited Baneberry Hall after her fathers death. She was too young to remember any of the events mentioned in her fathers book. But she doesnt believe a word of it. Ghosts, after all, dont exist.\r\n\r\nBut when she returns to Baneberry Hall to prepare it for sale, her homecoming is anything but warm. People from the pages of her fathers book lurk in the shadows, and locals arent thrilled that their small town has been made infamous. Even more unnerving is Baneberry Hall itself - a place that hints of dark deeds and unexplained happenings. \r\n\r\nAs the days pass, Maggie begins to believe that what her father wrote was more fact than fiction. That, either way, someone - or something - doesnt want her here. And that she might be in danger all over again . . . \r\n\r\nTHE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER\r\n\r\nOne of . . .\r\n\r\nHuff Posts 10 Of The Most Anticipated Book Releases Of June 2020 - Good Housekeepings The 35 Best Books of 2020 to Add to Your Reading List - Travel + Leisures 20 Most Anticipated Summer 2020 Books - PopSugars 17 Most Anticipated Summer Thrillers - Working Mothers The 20 Most Anticipated Books of 2020 - Newsweeks 20 most anticipated summer reads - Publishers Weeklys Summer Reads 2020 - BookPages 2020 Most Anticipated Thrillers and Mysteries - Today.coms 16 highly anticipated summer reads - The Star Tribunes Great Escapes summer reads - BookPages Private Eye July - USA TodaysSummer reading guide: 20 new books you wont want to miss - CrimeReads 10 New Books Coming Out This Week - Buzzfeed 17 New Thrillers That Will Keep Your Summer Exciting - The Everygirl 30 Books That Should Be on Your Summer Reading List.
