Her new home has a tragic history.

Brenna Daniels just turned forty, bought her first house, and can’t wait to put down roots in the town she loves. But from the day she moves in, unexpected issues arise, and her hopes for her dream home begin to unravel.

One neighbour warns her to stay off the path at the back of their properties after dark, while others whisper about the similarities between Brenna and the previous owners. In years past, others tried to call the house home, but never stayed long.

And when Brenna makes a scandalous discovery at her housewarming party, it jeopardizes her relationships with her new neighbours.

An old book left behind by a previous owner—a journal—hints at the chilling history of the house and the fate of the original residents. Drawn into the unsolved mystery from decades before, her curiosity leads to the brink of obsession.

But Brenna can’t focus on the past when present threats loom with each incident of trespassing, harassing phone calls, and the terrible sense that someone else has been in her home.

Can she finally uncover the truth about her new neighbours and the house that no longer feels safe, or will she become another part of the dark lore surrounding it?

Because the journal warns of a terrible monster lurking, someone who can see her… even in the dark.

Dripping with tension, O’Brien delivers a heart-pounding psychological thriller about a dream house turned nightmare. With bone-chilling revelations around every corner, this compulsive page-turner, perfect for fans of Home Before Dark, Bitter House, and On A Quiet Street, will have you sleeping with every light on.
