Spirits in the Trees

Evil does exist

An abandoned house, a serial killer, and a victim reaching out from the grave. A woman races against time to unearth buried secrets before she becomes a ghost herself.

You are not alone

Madeline Anderson goes to Isabelle Island, Washington, to sell a family home abandoned more than 40 years before. Strange things occur the moment she steps on the property. Inside the dilapidated old house, items move about of their own accord. Noises come from empty rooms. She has a vivid, recurring dream of a woman running for her life. The wind rustling through the trees sounds like urgent, murmuring voices. When the cacophony dies down, one single word emerges: Madeline, Madeline, Madeline.

You cannot hide

At first Doug Lindstrom, the hot fireman helping Maddy restore the old home, doesn't believe anything bizarre is going on. He's certain Maddy is jumping at shadows because the local kids call the house haunted. That is until he witnesses horrific violence he can't explain. After Maddy's life is threatened not once but twice, Doug vows there will not be a third time.

They are watching

While searching for answers, Maddy uncovers astonishing secrets about her aunt's past. Finding more questions than answers, she digs deeper until she stumbles across evidence of a cold case involving a serial killer named The Seaside Strangler. Now Maddy must unmask the killer. The lives she saves just might be their own.

It was enjoyable listening to the audiobook

really good ghost story

Any additional comments?

this audiobook was gifted to me in return for unbiased review.
I don't often read ghost stories, not that I have anything against them, but for some reason don't end up choosing them.
This one was certainly one of the good ones, it started a little slow , but as I got into the story it really grabbed me.it was just as spooky and thrilling as a film in this genre would be, without seeming rediculous.
Dispite it's subject the plot seemed plausable, and the characters believable.
The narration was byTeri Schnaubelt, who has a pleasant voice to listen to, but could perhaps have put a little more tension into the exciting/scary parts.
