After the death of her estranged father, Makenna "Mackie" Kannehill returns to the small, forgotten town of Blackridge to claim her inheritance: a decaying mansion hidden deep within the woods. But Kannehill Manor is not the refuge she hoped it would be. The house is steeped in mystery, filled with eerie whispers, strange shadows, and cryptic notes left by her father-notes that suggest the lake near the house holds dark secrets no one dares speak of.

Mackie's return is made even more complicated when she reunites with her childhood friend and the woman she has never quite forgot. Together, they work to uncover the truth behind Mackie's haunted inheritance, but as their connection deepens, so too does the danger surrounding them. Something-or someone-is watching them from the shadows, and the echoes of the past refuse to stay buried.

As Mackie and Eden unravel the chilling history of Kannehill Manor, they find themselves trapped between a love they thought was lost and a horror that refuses to be forgotten,All Rights Reserved
