Resumen del Editor

For fans of The Haunting of Hill House comes a dark tale of a mansion haunted by a legacy of tragedy and a family trapped by lies.

Margot and Myron Spielman move to a new town, looking for a fresh start and an escape from the long shadow of their past. But soon after they buy Rawlingswood, a foreclosed mansion rumored to be haunted, they realize they’re in for more of the same…or worse.

After a renovation fraught with injuries and setbacks, the Spielmans move in to the century-old house, and their problems quickly escalate. The home’s beautiful facade begins to crumble around them when their teenage son uncovers disturbing details of Rawlingswood’s history - a history of murder, betrayal, and financial ruin. The Spielmans’ own shameful secrets and lies become harder to hide as someone or something inside the house watches their every move.

As tensions build between the family members, the home’s dark history threatens to repeat itself. Margot and Myron must confront their own ghosts and Rawlingswood’s buried past before the house becomes their undoing.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A door creaks open. A footstep thumps on an empty floor above. A light turns on in a room left dark. In every silent room and black corner of No One’s Home, D. M. Pulley weaves threads of hypnotic suspense with the sad strands of a family lost to one another. With an elegantly restrained hand that stops mercifully shy of showcasing the unbearable, Pulley has created a contemporary intelligent thriller that can stand with the canon of the legendary Shirley Jackson.” (Amber Cowie, bestselling author of Rapid Falls)

“Disturbing and creepy. D.M. Pulley does a masterful job of introducing the reader to families who, at different points in time, are forced to experience life in the same menacing house. Reminds me of Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House, and I loved every second of it!” (Matthew Farrell, bestselling author of What Have You Done)

It's Ok

The book is alright, just alright. It kept me interested enough to finish it, but I wasn't really concerned about the fate of the characters. It was a good listen for a work day.

good

Good story! Great narration . Plenty of twists and plot lines without being confusing.

Brilliant!

First book I have ever read by D.M. Pulley...what a ghostly treat! Creepy and mysterious tale that weave several decades of families and their misfortunes involving a mansion hiding (yet exposed) secrets. The narration was engaging and held the feeling of suspense.

The story kept me engrossed from the first chapter to the last, all the while keeping an open eye and ear for a hint of a shadow or faint voice in my own home!

Nice Surprise

This was a cleverly done story in the “haunted house“ genre. The story is intelligently woven through time events throughout the chapters. One review were said it was hard to keep up with the changes in the timeline, but I did not find it so.
The book was written well, and superbly read.

Wonderful audio book!

I didn't want to stop hearing it. It kept me hooked to the very end. Great writer! Headed to audio store to look up D. M. Pulley for another one to listen to!!

Amazing!

Easily one of the best books I've ever read. Constantly kept me guessing and wanting more.

Decent, but not great

I found the writing a bit elementary and a bit corny. The narrator only enhanced this. The story itself is decent. Overall, it’s decent, but not great.

Another winner for Ms. Pulley!!

This is D.M. Pulley's fourth novel, all standalone. I've been a fan since the release of The Dead Key in 2015. The author understands how to build suspense and she does it superbly. NO ONE"S HOME is more than a bit creepy as are Pulley's other novels. I love this novel.

Narration by Emily Sutton-Smith is outstanding.

So close

This book is SO CLOSE to being great. It just seemed to never peak. I kept waiting and waiting and waiting for it to happen, then it ended. It was good, but not great.

"Unexpected Ending"

This was a very interesting read. Not as much of a ghost story as I thought but there were bits and pieces of ghostly mystery within the plot.
