New York Times bestselling author Grady Hendrix takes on the haunted house in a hilarious and frightening new novel that explores the way your past - and your family - can haunt you like nothing else. Louise's parents have passed away, and she's returning to Charleston, where she grew up, to get their house ready to sell. She doesn't want to deal with the remnants of her father's academic career and her mother's lifelong obsession with puppets and dolls. And she doesn't want to spend time with her younger brother, Mark: their old grudges make that a terrifying prospect. But childhood hurts pale in comparison to the dangers posed by what still lives inside the house. Some houses don't want to be sold... and Louise and Mark's home has other plans for both of them.
Library Technician Robin Brzozowski, has been leading the discussions for several years, selecting diverse titles ranging from best sellers to local authors, classic works, and occasional non-fiction titles.
