Description

After the sudden death of her teenage son, a successful Black author returns to the remote Washington town where her family has lived for generations, seeking answers—and perhaps a way to heal. At the center of the mystery stands the family’s ancestral home, a place marked by buried secrets, unsettling folklore, and a darkness that reaches far beyond one household. Blending psychological suspense, supernatural horror, and richly drawn family history, the novel explores grief, inherited trauma, racism, and the enduring power of community. Its atmospheric storytelling and emotional depth make it both a chilling ghost story and a poignant examination of the forces that shape generations.
