A Novel

De: Lindsay Marcott

Narrado por: Eva Kaminsky, Jane Oppenheimer, Eileen Stevens

From the bestselling author of Mrs. Rochester’s Ghost comes the chilling story of a young woman who returns to her haunted childhood home to unravel the deadly mysteries of her family’s past.

Ava grew up in a haunted mansion, envied by all her friends. But when her mother died mysteriously there, the thrills of Blackworth Mansion became nightmares. Ava never accepted that her mother perished from natural causes, but no one would believe her.

Seventeen years later, Ava returns home to unravel the truth of her mother’s death—and her own demons quickly follow. Her estranged and vindictive father may be stalking her. Her secretive new sister-in-law lands on her doorstep with troubles of her own. And then there’s the strange girl who may or may not be haunting the grounds. Even Ava’s romance with her first crush is shadowed by her suspicions.

When Ava makes a terrifying discovery on the property, she must decide just how far into the past she’s willing to go. Some secrets can be deadly—especially the ones Ava’s kept hidden in the dark.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Marcott keeps the reader guessing to the very end. Gothic suspense fans won’t want to miss this one.” (Publishers Weekly (starred review))

Awful narrator

Does the narrator need an inhaler? She gasps so severely and loudly after every sentence! I seriously worry for her health if saying a couple words makes her gasp like that. I’m also surprised with the amt of money I pay Audible every month that they can’t edit out those noises or pay for better narrators… it was so distracting that I didn’t think I was going to make it through the book. That’s super sad because the story itself was pretty good. Unfortunately when all is said and done, it’s the distraction of the narrators gasping breath that I will remember most about this book. I recommend reading this one - don’t waste a credit to hear this version!!!

So good!

I truly enjoyed this book the storyline is just so dreamy and yet at the same time so suspenseful and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time.

GREAT BOOK!

The fact there was a haunted house is what grabbed my attention but the characters certainly kept it. I developed a theory in the first few chapters and found in the end, I was spot on but that didn't take away from my overall enjoyment of the book and my only disappointment was the lack of haunts in the haunted house.

Great semi-spooky mystery!

Throughly enjoyed this book and finished it within a few days, couldn’t put it down! Great story line that keeps you guessing till the end!

Story is great but the narrator is not

The story is great! It keeps you guessing and re-examining your guesses. The narrator(s) though drive me absolutely insane. I’m not sure if “Ava” is trying to sound breathy after every sentence but it makes her sound panicked the entire time. Sarah’s character is similar. It makes me wish I would’ve just bought the physical book and read it myself.
