The Farmhouse at Peace & Plenty

A Southern Gothic Ghost Tale (Tales from the Parlor Room: A Collection of Gothic and Ghostly Tales)

The house, for all of its solitude, seemed incredibly noisy.

The Farmhouse, having stood against time and history for nearly 160 years in the Virginia countryside, was forgotten and abandoned until Kyle and Jenny Dowling moved in during the summer of 1972. The Dowlings, married just a year, are struggling to repair their broken marriage. It was to be the perfect place, away from it all, to heal their relationship. Jenny would write, and Kyle would tend to minor renovations. The rent was cheap.

The realtor warned them, however, against staying beyond the final days of fall.

“No, it isn’t recommended you stay through the winter. Winter is a difficult time at The Farmhouse.”

But it was only summer and winter was a long way off."

The Audible Version Is Life!!

I listened to this beauty on Audible. The storyline was mysterious and fascinating. The narration had me spellbound; I was transported to another dimension. I am legit hooked on this author's books, looking forward to reading all of her stories.

Entrancing Story

This beautifully written story creates such amazing visuals. I could absolutely picture the details of the property, the town, and the people. The tale is sad, haunting, and somewhat disturbing, but there is hope intertwined, as well. Jennifer March’s narration adds to the eerie aspects of the story. A great listen!
