Description

After moving into a new neighborhood, Jo becomes fascinated by the abandoned Marwick House next door—a gothic residence whose occupants repeatedly flee in terror, leaving everything behind. When Anna, a secretive doll maker, moves in and asks Jo to stay with her, their tentative friendship draws them into the house’s growing supernatural menace. As the haunting intensifies and the building’s vengeful presence begins to reveal its secrets, Jo must confront the dark history binding Anna to the house before they both become its next victims. Blending atmospheric horror, psychological suspense, and themes of friendship, isolation, and buried trauma, the novel delivers a chilling haunted-house tale with an intimate, character-driven edge.
