In the grand halls of the Johnson estate, appearances are everything-and nothing is what it seems.

Cordelia Johnson has always been told she talks too much. That she's too curious, too emotional, too different from her perfect siblings. For years, her parents kept her locked inside the house, hidden from the world under the guise of illness. But when a funeral stirs old memories and secrets, Cordelia begins to uncover a terrible truth: she is not who they say she is.All Rights Reserved

And some threads, once pulled, can never be tied back together.

As she attempts to settle the estate and uncover the truth behind her father's final days, she begins to experience nightmarish visions, voices in the walls, and waking dreams of her ancestors' violent pasts. She soon learns the house is not simply haunted-it is a vessel for a legion of demons bound by blood to her family line.
