AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A woman must confront the demons of her past when she attempts to fix up her childhood home in this devilishly clever take on the haunted house novel from the author of Black Sheep and So Thirsty.

Clio Louise Barnes leads a picture-perfect life as a stylist and influencer, but beneath the glossy veneer she harbors a not-so glamorous secret: she grew up in a haunted house. Well, not haunted. Possessed. After Clio’s parents' messy divorce, her mother, Alex, moved Clio and her sisters into a house occupied by a demon. Or so Alex claimed. That’s not what Clio’s sisters remember or what the courts determined when they stripped her of custody after she went off the deep end. But Alex was insistent; she even wrote a book about her experience in the house.

After Alex’s sudden death, the supposedly possessed house passes to Clio and her sisters. Where her sisters see childhood trauma, Clio sees an opportunity for house flipping content. Only, as the home makeover process begins, Clio discovers there might be some truth to her mother’s claims. As memories resurface and Clio finally reads her mother’s book, a sinister presence in the house manifests, revealing ugly truths that threaten to shake Clio’s beautiful life to its very foundation.

Just Enough Creep Factor

This was a good listen! It was cute, well-paced, with just enough creepiness to keep me from getting too annoyed with the main character. It was extremely well-read, too; I don't think I would've liked it as much had I read the physical copy. A good time overall!

Good

This was a interesting and fun read. I found it entertaining and the comparison to mental health mixed with a haunted house to be an excellent use of dialogue. What a great story.

Cheeky and spooky

This was not your average horror story. I appreciate how the author was able to tie in themes of family ties and betrayal with paranormal themes.

fun and gripping!!

I had fun listening to this! Great narrative performance and gripping storyline. Funny haunted house story

5 stars all day everyday

Harrison is an autobuy author for me and it's because her characters feel real. It's like sitting with a friend (with a more glamorous life than yours) and listening to their wild stories.
