About The Book

The Easton family has just moved into their new fixer-upper, a beautiful old house that they bought at a steal, and Alice, the youngest of the family, is excited to explore the strange, new place. Her excitement turns to growing dread as she discovers a picture hidden under the old wallpaper, a child’s drawing of a family just like hers.

Soon after, members of the family begin to disappear, each victim marked on the child’s drawing with a dark black X. It’s up to her to unlock the grim mystery of the house before she becomes the next victim.

Raves and Reviews

"In this dark, character-driven horror story, the central family is constructed with painful realism."

– Foreward Reviews

"This story has hints of the first Insidious movie and should be a hit with fans of ghoulies, ghosties and things that go bump in the night."

– For the Love of Books

"From the moment I picked up the book I did not move until I finished it [...] It is a non-stop thriller and horror novel that keeps you guessing until the end."

– Ily's Guest House

"This is a very solid story with a very catchy opening which will have you eating up pages quickly and is an entertaining few hours of escapism."

– Horror DNA

"[...] an uncomfortable read which creaks and spooks the reader as much as the house which the Easton's move into..."

– Rachel Read It

"The author put a lot of thought into the details, which fit together like puzzle pieces, but missing the original pattern, so that only at the end, when everything is put together neatly, you are able to recognize the scary overall picture."

– Lovely Books

"If you are looking for a quick spine-chiller to round out your October TBR, you should definitely check this one out!"

– Megs Book Rack

"A thrilling dark read, that left me on edge."

– Lost in the Land of Books
