The Ghost Downstairs

In a Seattle sorority in 1936, two university students lost their lives. Seventy years later, the house has become an assisted-living facility, and Lina Zuendel moves in to work as a nurse, but soon discovers the house does not easily let go of its past.

Items move on their own, unseen hands shove her, lights go out by themselves, and sounds echo from empty rooms. She tries to ignore the unsettling events and focus on her growing attraction to Ren Schultz, a quiet young man who works in the kitchen. He seems to have a deep understanding of the house’s strange quirks, but he’s unwilling to share his secrets. Gradually, Lina learns the spirit world is closer than she ever believed, and that the man she’s falling in love with is not what he seems.
