In this evocative and stunning debut, secrets in the very bones of Harthwait House are disturbed when a new tenant moves in, for fans of Ashley Poston and A House with Good Bones. Be wary the beds and the space beneath, the cracks in the floors and the furnace teeth. Keep your eyes from the shadows and tongue so still. Because once Harthwait grows dark, the monsters become real. Landry is ready to clean house--not just Harthwait, but the traumatic memories and family entanglements that haunt her. Left reeling from her aunt's sudden death, Landry knows she has to restore the old house and sell it for much needed cash. Preferably, before autumn arrives. But as renovations begin on Harthwait, she notices some peculiarities: Motion sensors activate when no one is home, doors slam shut, and every night, at a quarter after midnight, the disembodied crying begins. Then, when she uncovers a hidden door during the renovations, she dares to open it. Behind the door is a world of nightmares, some of which are hers, while others belong to a monster--who is trapped inside and desperate to get out. Both haunted by their pasts, Landry makes a deal with the monster, but as they develop feelings for each other, she realizes that the thing that looks like a beast may not be the most beastly thing after all. This rich and spellbinding tale explores the idea of what we call home and who we call family.
