A young woman name Ryaan-Averie inherits a massive old house from her "grandmother," whom she never met. But when she arrives in the small, eerie town, she's immediately met with resistance from a distant cousin who claims the inheritance is rightfully theirs. As she digs through journals and letters in the house, she discovers two shocking things:
1. Her family history is a web of lies (her grandmother may actually be her mother).
2. Clues suggest that the grandmother might not be dead at all-someone could be keeping her hidden, or she faked her own death.
Meanwhile, someone in town is determined to scare her off before she uncovers the truth.

Armed only with her father's cryptic journals, an occult grimoire hidden behind a false wall, and her own unraveling sanity, she must confront the horrors within the estate before the house consumes her soul like it did the others.Complete
