Story4 out of 5 stars 34
For years Heather Tradescant had dreamed of the journey she and her father would take to England - a pilgrimage to the great gardens of history. Now that her father is dead, Heather is determined to fulfill his dreams. Unfortunately her request to see the fabled 17th-century garden of Troytan House is denied by the owner. Though unwelcome, she braves the walls of briars and reaches the Victorian manor house beyond. She senses a strange mission of evil lurking, tainting the manor's peaceful beauty.

House from Black Rainbow transplanted to America
The house in this story, Grayhaven Manor, appeared previously in "Black Rainbow." It has now been moved stone by stone from England to America. I really like the writing style and Barbara Rosenblat's narration. No racy romance here, just an entertaining story. I've been buying and listening to all the audible unabridged downloads of Barbara Michaels' books read by Barbara Rosenblat. Now I'll have to listen to the Elizabeth Peters books I've downloaded and haven't gotten around to listening to yet. She really is a great storyteller.

Loved this all the way to end - then disappointed
Is there anything you would change about this book?
The ending! I guess I'm an incurable romantic.
Would you recommend Someone in the House to your friends? Why or why not?
No. The ending! I want HAPPY endings.
Which scene was your favorite?
I liked when Ann arrived at the house, when she met Bea (was she really Aunt Bee of Mayberry? Such a homebody!) When Ann checked on Kevin after he was drugged and the next day they found that mossy bower outside, I was thrilled - & that was probably my favorite . I liked Bea and Roger until Roger started acting so obnoxiously abrasive.
Do you think Someone in the House needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
That would be interesting. Will Debbie start planting flowers & embroidering hankerchiefs?
Will Kevin continue to drift? Will Roger's skepticism ever revive?
Will the psychic control ever be broken? But my favorite character was Ann and I care much more about her than the rest.
Any additional comments?
Again - the ending was a real downer. Such a shame as Barbara Rosenblat's reading is SO enjoyable. I just love her. She's the best.

I usually like Barbara Michael's,but this wasn't one of her better books.The story was half baked really,not much to it.The narrator did pretty good with the character's & their voices & giving them life but the story was a bit bland.
