The House on Foster Hill by Jaime Jo Wright






Kaine Prescott is no stranger to death. When her husband died two years ago, her pleas for further investigation into his suspicious death fell on deaf ears. In desperate need of a fresh start, Kaine purchases an old house sight unseen in her grandfather's Wisconsin hometown. But one look at the eerie, abandoned house immediately leaves her questioning her rash decision. And when the house's dark history comes back with a vengeance, Kaine is forced to face the terrifying realization she has nowhere left to hide.
A century earlier, the house on Foster Hill holds nothing but painful memories for Ivy Thorpe. When an unidentified woman is found dead on the property, Ivy is compelled to discover her identity. Ivy's search leads her into dangerous waters and, even as she works together with a man from her past, can she unravel the mystery before any other lives--
including her own--are lost?

My Review





The author has us traveling in two periods of time, a century apart, and yet really tied together as we learn.
Don’t get too comfortable and you might want to keep the lights on, this book is scary in more ways than one, both in the past and also in the present.
The revelations here are going to make you cringe and you wonder what happenings in California have to do with Wisconsin, but unexplained things are going on, and you wonder why, and boy do surprises abound here, most I never saw coming.
A first novel for this author, and I cannot wait for more, she had me from the beginning for this real page turner of a read.
Come along with our current day Kate buys a home sight unseen, it doesn’t even have a door, and see how it connects to early 1900’s Ivy, you won’t be disappointed.

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review.
