Back Cover Description Some houses are born haunted. Others become that way. When Mae Kendrick stumbles upon a weathered Lot For Sale sign at the edge of a quiet cul-de-sac, she doesn't know she's about to unearth more than foundation and timber. Beneath the overgrown grass and rotted beams of Rookridge Lane lies a history as twisted as the roots beneath it--one that stretches back to the 1800s. From the mysterious builder, Silas Mott, who raised the house in memory of a lost child, to generations of families drawn to its dark allure, the house has witnessed love, loss, madness, and death. Each brick hides a secret. Each whisper in the wall tells a story. As Mae renovates the house, the past begins to awaken. Through forgotten journals, ghostly encounters, and buried artifacts, she must piece together the legacy of the home--and confront a truth long hidden: some houses keep the ones they've taken.
