Home alone with her young children during a blizzard, a mother tucks her son back into bed in the middle of the night. She hears a noise—old houses are always making some kind of noise. But this sound is disturbingly familiar: it’s the tread of footsteps, unusually heavy and slow, coming up the stairs. Shrouded in the shadows, she sees the figure of a man appear down the hallway. Terrified, she quietly wakes her children and hustles them into the oldest part of the house, a tiny, secret room concealed behind a wall.

Having a mom like Izzy meant Mia had to grow up fast. No extracurriculars, no inviting friends over, and definitely no dating. The most important rule: Tell no one of Izzy’s hunger—the kind only blood can satisfy. But Mia is in her twenties now and longs for a life of her own. One where she doesn’t have to worry about anyone discovering their terrible secret, or breathing down her neck. When Mia meets rebellious musician Jade she dares to hope she’s found a way to leave her home—and her mom—behind. It just might be Mia’s only chance of getting out alive.

Resumen del Editor
The bestselling author of The Witch of Tin Mountain and Parting the Veil mines the subtle horrors of 1950s America in a gripping novel about a woman under pressure—from the living and the dead.
The first day of autumn brought the fever, and with the fever came the voices.
Missouri, 1955. Loretta Davenport has led an isolated life as a young mother and a wife to Pete, an ambitious assistant professor at a Bible college. They’re the picture of domestic tranquility—until a local girl is murdered and Loretta begins receiving messages from beyond. Pete dismisses them as delusions of a fevered female imagination. Loretta knows they’re real—and frightening.
Defying Pete’s demands, Loretta finds an encouraging supporter in parapsychologist Dr. Curtis Hansen. He sees a woman with a rare gift, more blessing than curse. With Dr. Hansen’s help, Loretta’s life opens up to an empowering new purpose. But for Pete, the God-fearing image he’s worked so hard to cultivate is under threat. No longer in control of his dutiful wife, he sees the Devil at work.
As Loretta’s powers grow stronger and the pleading spirits beckon, Pete is determined to deliver his wife from evil. To solve the mysteries of the dead, Loretta must first save herself.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“Shirley Jackson fans will appreciate this novel with a distinct vintage vibe; readers of gothic and supernatural titles will be drawn in by the book’s feminist empowerment narrative.”—Library Journal
“With a mystery that steadily builds, this gothic novel masterfully captures the horrors and sexism of 1950s suburbia. A bewitching page-turner with author Kennedy's signature: a strong heroine who cleverly navigates twist after twist.”—Booklist
“There is a bit of romance, and a theme of embracing one’s true self. This is a satisfying mix of historical mystery and paranormal fiction that fans of those genres will enjoy. Highly recommended.”—Historical Novels Review

Nicole, the middle child, has been kept at arm’s length due to her ongoing battle with a serious drug addiction. Michael, the youngest, lives out of state and hasn’t been back to their small Wisconsin town since their father ran out on them seven years before. While going through their parent’s belongings, the siblings stumble upon a collection of home videos and decide to revisit those happier memories.

Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

Feminist Lit with a gothic twist at it’s best
What a great book. A little scarier than I normally read—one night I had to put it aside because it was perfectly frightening, but I was eager to pick it back up in the morning. This book manages to do what is supremely hard: Tell a good story while also exposing the mirror between history and now. I was riveted. And the audiobook is a really immersive, well-told experience. In the end, I both listened and read because I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss a word.
Loretta Davenport is just a normal 1950s housewife—if normal means being subject to the dictates of the king, her husband. When a fever strikes and brings voices with it, Loretta is now what, clairvoyant? One thing is sure: She sees dead people. And worse, the mere touch of one of their treasures can send her spiraling toward their last moments. Meanwhile, her need to escape the strictures of her existence acts as lighter fluid to her deeply rotten husband. And is it magic or happenstance—or deliverance—that frisures soon appear in their home?
You’ll have to read further to find out. Also know this—you’ll learn a good deal about the plight of women in the US during those times. Read and rage, my friends, and take notes, lest it happen again.

Fantastic work from my new favorite author
Paulette Kennedy has done a fantastic job making me feel genuinely that I was in the 50s, living life alongside Loretta as she battled the forces of life, and those beyond. Fantastic storytelling, and absolutely fantastic narration. 10/10 100 gold stars.

Suspense and a thriller
Wow this book! Set in the mid 1950s. Loretta is a 27 year old wife ( I hate the term housewife but it seems to be coined in the 50s) she is married to Pete, a professor at a religious college, she had two kids. After a brief illness she is plagued by visions. What happens next is a roller coaster of events. I found myself thinking of my grandmother and the rights a woman didn’t have in the 1950s. A woman in this time couldn’t open a bank account or cash a check without a male relative to vouch for her. I loved this book and the strength of Loretta was palpable. 5 Stars

My First of Many Paulette Kennedy Books
I rarely leave reviews because I’m far too lazy, but this book deserves all the praise that can be typed. I started this book yesterday and finished today! This is my first Paulette Kennedy and I absolutely love the characterization and plot construction in this book. The discussion of womanhood, sexism, and the nuclear family really resonated with me. I will definitely be reading more Paulette Kennedy in the future!!

All hail Shirley Jackson core
Massive thank you to Agatha at She Wore Black Podcast for introducing this novel to my world.
The Devil and Mrs. Davenport is a mid-century gothic romance that checks all the boxes, while simultaneously bringing something fresh to a specific formula. All I could ask from a book was contained within its pages.
The characters in this novel were palpable, raw humans. I cared for them and their happiness. (Paulette Kennedy said Dr. Hansen is inspired a bit by Jude Law in The Holiday and I can't get that image out of my mind!)
Only negative aspect is the narrator when it comes to narrating Dr. Hansen. I’m sorry, I just couldn’t do it. I saved scenes with him for my kindle copy. It just didn’t fit for me!
I am so glad I picked this book up and can't wait to tell everyone to read it.
All hail Shirley Jackson

The story was good, but my god… the breathy, whispery affect the reader was putting on…there were many times when thought, ‘no… return this book. I cannot do another 9 hours of this book…” but the story kept me listening
