Rookward House may be hours away from its nearest neighbor, but he cant escape the feeling that hes being watched. Still, he doesnt believe in ghost stories and decides to camp in the crumbling old mansion while he does repairs. Surely nothing too bad can happen in the space of a week.
But theres a reason no one lives in the haunting house, with its twisting shadows and whispering walls. The dilapidated rooms arent as empty as they seem. Forty years ago, a deranged woman tormented the family that made Rookward its home. Now her ghost clings to the building like rot. Shes bitter, obsessive, and fiercely jealous... and once Guy has moved into her house, she has no intention of letting him go.
