"The house is beautiful. The house is monstrous. And it wants her."
THE HOUSE AT WATCH HILL
By Karen Marie Moning
A gothic tale of inheritance, temptation, and an ancient darkness that hungers.
WHEN THE HOUSE CHOOSES YOU
Zo Grey's life shatters after her mother's sudden death — until a stranger calls with an inheritance from a relative she's never met.
With nowhere else to go, she travels to Divinity, Louisiana, and steps into Watch Hill, a sprawling mansion that shifts like it's alive… and hides more secrets than walls.
The house is beautiful. The house is monstrous. And from the moment Zo arrives, it wants her.
With three years to survive within its shadowed halls before she can claim her fortune, Zo begins to unravel the estate's mysteries:
A red-eyed owl that watches her sleep.
Staircases that lead nowhere.
Doors that vanish.
And a brooding Scottish groundskeeper whose presence feels like both a warning and a lure.
As the townspeople whisper about dark legends, Zo discovers that the mansion isn't just cursed — it's connected to her in ways she never imagined.
And Watch Hill does not give without taking.
To survive, Zo must confront ancient evil… and the darkness awakening inside herself.
