House at Arden Heights

Arden Heights was meant to be a retreat-a quiet place where faculty could plan the future of their college. Instead, it becomes a confession chamber.

As a violent storm traps eight educators inside, old grudges and buried scandals claw their way into the open. When the power dies and a man collapses with a knife in his ribs, the house becomes a map of motives: debt, betrayal, jealousy, lost recognition, and a secret that should have been buried long ago.

But death is only the beginning.

Someone else in the house is willing to kill to protect what remains of a ruined legacy. Someone whose devotion twists into violence. Someone who knows the hallways too well.

With the storm raging and the truth tightening like a noose, The House at Arden Heights becomes a story not just of murder, but of the terrifying ways people justify their sins when the walls close in.
