Resumen del Editor

Kaine Prescott is no stranger to death. When her husband died two years ago, her pleas for further investigation into his suspicious death fell on deaf ears. In desperate need of a fresh start, Kaine purchases an old house sight unseen in her grandfather's Wisconsin hometown. But one look at the eerie, abandoned house immediately leaves her questioning her rash decision. And when the house's dark history comes back with a vengeance, Kaine is forced to face the terrifying realization she has nowhere left to hide.

A century earlier, the house on Foster Hill holds nothing but painful memories for Ivy Thorpe. When an unidentified woman is found dead on the property, Ivy is compelled to discover her identity. Ivy's search leads her into dangerous waters and, even as she works together with a man from her past, can she unravel the mystery before any other lives - including her own - are lost?

couldn't stop listening

I have been looking for a book that would touch me as much as this one did. Not only was it incredibly suspenseful and thought provoking, it told a story of a long line of strong women. Every chapter from past to present showed the strength of women and God, and the love that can prevail through hardships and healing.

Gothic Elements, Great Story!

Really enjoyed this story! I loved the Gothic elements, romance and mystery. I also loved the split time story lines.

Great new author!

Ms. Wright is a new author to me and I have already purchased her next book. Great storyline, plot, very clean, suspenseful and inspiring as well though you do not expect that.

Very well read by Erin Bennet.

Intense Ride!

Wow, talk about one intense ride! I've read Jaime Jo Wright's other novels and LOVED them so I was happy to finally get my hands on her award-winning debut. I'm pleased to share that her writing has been masterful right from the beginning!

I was really impressed with the narrator. Her voice matched the energy and intensity of the story and really made it come to life. This was a very entertaining book to listen to. Although I was able to listen to it over two nights at work, even at home this wouldn't be an easy one to press the pause button.

I love that Jaime Jo's books are incredibly unpredictable. When you open the book you can expect to go on a wild (and often scary) ride of mystery and suspense from two timelines that weave together into the perfect masterpiece by the time you reach the conclusion. I really appreciate that she is able to share suspenseful stories that have conclusions that  don't compromise on Christian values. Each book has a part where the characters talk about a heart change and/or message the Lord has taught them through their ordeal. her books aren't overly "preachy" but the moments where she shares Christ are perfectly written to get people thinking.

This story really got my heart pumping. It was realistic and suspenseful. The characters and setting were well developed. I was quickly sucked into the world of Foster Hill and held captive to the very end. I felt like I was on the same journey right alongside Ivy and Kaine. This is a story that's sure to stay with me for a very long time.

*Just a big of a content warning, but I think this book has some elements that may be triggers for PTSD and sexual assault. Part of this story talks about human trafficking and there is some stalking and domestic abuse that can be difficult for some readers.

Great book

This was one of the best books I’ve read lately...I highly recommend ordering it.

awesome mystery, juvenile romance

This is an excellent read! My only criticism is the nature and description of the romance felt very idealistic. If this book were geared towards 13 year old girls, I would say that it's perfect; however, the indications of sex trafficking and other more gruesome details make it a little darker than what I would view as appropriate for a teen audience. The mystery was captivating. The clues that tie into both of our main characters stories make this riveting! Apart from my one complaint, this is a good read.

The house on Foster Hill

I liked it. could you use some more Ghostly Parts in the story and historical could have been a little more. But overall good narrator good
