Model Home meets Delicate Condition in this hauntingly original gothic horror about a mysterious midwife tasked with delivering hauntings who must uncover the truth behind her newest patient's uncanny birth before it tears her world apart. Within Midhouse, a secluded manor deep in the woods, midwife Halie has a strange calling: overseeing the births of hauntings. Each arrives as an uncanny miniature--perfect replicas of places steeped in pain and unresolved wrongs. And once nestled within Midhouse's walls, they reach ghostly fingers back into the world, seeking justice and retribution. When Midhouse's newest patient, Isabelle, arrives, Halie expects a routine birth, but the house-child is fragile, incomplete in a way she's never seen. Halie suspects Isabelle is hiding a dangerous secret. Then strange men arrive at her door--and Midhouse changes. Corridors lengthen, rooms disappear, and Midhouse itself becomes hostile. To survive, Halie must uncover the truth behind Isabelle's arrival before she's lost in a haunting of her own.
