The Clockwork Inheritance: A Time-Bending Thriller

By: Hodge, Kimberly L.

The house on Blackwood Hill wasn't left to her.
It was left for her.

When twenty-one-year-old Maya Vance inherits her grandfather's sprawling Victorian mansion, she expects a crumbling estate and unanswered questions. Instead, she finds a warning - and a legacy she was never meant to carry.

The house at 1 Blackwood Hill isn't just a home. It's a fortress guarding a fracture in time.

Maya soon discovers that her grandfather was a Gatekeeper, sworn to protect a device capable of bending the past and rewriting the future. When that device is dismantled and hidden across the town of Oakhaven, Maya and her friends are forced into a deadly scavenger hunt - one that draws the attention of a ruthless enemy whose body is decaying outside of time.

As betrayals surface and the house begins to awaken, Maya must decide who she can trust before the door hidden inside Blackwood Hill is unlocked.

Because in a world where history can be rewritten, the most dangerous choice isn't running out of time.

It's unlocking it.
