A house with a dark secret.

A grieving daughter determined to carry out her parents' last wishes.

A grandmother with something to hide…

Chloe Thomas brushes aside her grandmother's pleas that she stay away from Truscott House, and moves in with her friend Emily to finish the project her parents had begun before their death—the renovation of a property that had been in the family for a century.

Sure: she knows that the locals say it's haunted. She brushes that aside; kids will be kids, and so-called haunted houses are practically a rite of childhood, aren't they?

But it isn't long before Chloe has to eat her words, and admit that something doesn't seem want them there—but who? Or what? And why?

Growing increasingly afraid, she has to dig deep to find the courage to continue, with a terrified friend begging her to leave and as the truth about her grandmother's childhood is revealed. Does she have what it takes to see this out, risking another terrible loss for her grandmother? Or is it possible to reverse the ill fortune of decades, and make Truscott House a happy home once more?

She calls in the help of a ghost-hunter, and only then does she understand the strength of the unquiet spirit in her home—and that there are other innocents who have much at stake.
