Struggling writer Wren Lee hasn't slept properly in eighteen months. Not since the car accident that derailed her entire life. The night she still can't fully remember. So when she receives a surprise inheritance from her estranged grandfather, a house in rural Virginia seems like the escape Wren desperately needs.

But the grand mansion she arrives at is nothing like she hoped. From the moment Wren arrives, something feels wrong. A strange lullaby echoes through the maze-like hallways at night and Ruth, the housekeeper who still sets a place at dinner for a dead man, watches Wren with an intensity that goes beyond protective. Unwelcome and unsettled, Wren is determined to uncover the house's secrets, starting with the forbidden east wing…

Then the storm hits, and Wren is trapped with no way out. To survive, she'll have to confront not only the darkness in these walls but the buried truth about the night that broke her. Because in this house, the past doesn't stay buried. And neither do its ghosts.

A completely gripping and twisty gothic thriller that will bewitch fans of Mexican Gothic, The Sanatorium and Sharp Objects.
