The House on the Shore

A Paranormal Mystery

De: A. L. Jambor

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

When Mariah Kimball inherits a seaside house from a great-grandmother she never knew existed, she steps into a world steeped in mystery and family secrets. Cora Warren's tragic story is a tapestry of betrayal, loss, and the haunting legacy of a death ruled an accident—one that Detective Jerry Keating was convinced was murder.

As Mariah settles into Cora's old house, she is unnerved to discover that its former residents—Cora, her daughter Meghan, and granddaughter Kathleen—appear to relive pivotal moments from their lives. These spectral visits unveil a dark history, revealing how Cora's harsh parenting drove Meghan into addiction and stifled Kathleen's dreams.

Yet, the past is not the only thing haunting Mariah. A persistent detective, fixated on uncovering the truth behind Bertram Warren's death, arrives at her door daily, searching for answers that died with Meghan. As Mariah grapples with her newfound family connections and the weight of their unresolved drama, she finds herself drawn into the mystery of her great-grandmother's past.

Was Cora truly responsible for her husband’s death, or is there more to the story? As Mariah uncovers the tangled threads of her family's history, she must confront the echoes of the past and decide whether to let them shape her future. In a tale where the dead hold the keys to the truth, Mariah's journey becomes a race against time to unveil the secrets that bind them all.

It was hard to get past the robot voice narrator

The story was interesting but the narrator’s robotic voice made it less interesting and harder to pay attention.

Emotion in Voice Would be Helpful

AI voice doesn't put inflection or pause in appropriate places which was a bit distracting from the story. I still enjoyed the story itself but felt it could have been much more interesting with a live read by anyone.
