Not really an ending...

Book was good, narrator was excellent (as she always is) but there was no ending. It felt like the end of a chapter not the end of the book. I hope the epilogue was not a sneak peek of a #2 with new characters, Id like to know what happens with these characters first. Overall I did really enjoy the book, it held my interest all the way through...and beyond.

Enjoyable but..

The story overall was enjoyable, but there were too many openings to subplots without end, feeling more like fluff than necessary action or detail, and the ending was anti climactic. I don't like stories that don't have an end - this one does have one, it's just wasn't a big bang of an ending.

A haunting

The book was good but it was a crappy ending. I don’t even know if the main character got with the guy she was eyeing? They don’t say... they left stuff out at the ending.

Really liked this haunting.

…and I am a big fan of horror stories. This was creepy because you could just feel yourself in the position of this woman…alone, overwhelmed by divorce, work to be done, first home, really wanting it to be nice and NOT wanting it to be haunted!

Great steady story

I like that this book kept the characters to a minimum and the concepts were believable. Excellent job. Great narration.

Great Story

I'm more of a urban paranormal with all kinds of creatures, so this was a nice change. I enjoyed everything, the characters, storyline and narration.

A Haunting of a Nice Victorian Plantation To Grab You

Sara was in the court to hear the sentencing of her husband Shawn Faust. He had been found guilty of defrauding the Teachers and Fire Men's Association leaving them with no pensions upon retirement. Sara had worked three years for a small property development company. Her boss had called her in and suggested a leave of absence casting no shadow of a doubt on her participation and her innocence. She accepted his offer and severance pay. Shawn had received twenty right years in confinement. She had stood beside him throughout his trail even though she learned he had been seeing another woman. She (Kellie) had turned states evidence in Shawn in receipt of amunity and was free. Sarah knew it was time to sell out and leave town for a fresh start. She moved further down the East Cost to Charleston, S. C. She began hunting for a house to restart her life. She had looked at several houses when her realtor show her a two story Victorian house which looked in need of much attention. It was almost hidden surrounded by many trees, shurbs, vines and brush. He said it needs a little work both outside and inside. Are you ready for a tour inside? Sarah agreed and they went in. He said he was told the house dated back to the Revolutionary War. Well Sara bought the house on Rue Lane because she could get it for a price she couldn't turn down. Sara began the renovation of the old plantation a little at a time as she could it. She needed a job an had filled out on line resumes, but no call yet. She began exploring the premises both outside and inside. Sarah saw much repair was needed outdide, but she was eager to start inside first. Meeting the neighbor's brought up a lot of stories which told of paranormal activities in her house. She figured all houses that old had to have some history and decided she would check it out. Sarah was determined to find out the history with her new home so she visited the library and Court House early the next day. She was told by both the house was considered haunted and no one had lived there for quiet awhile because of that. Sara did not believe in ghost so she remained in her new house and continued to renovate to make it once again a beautiful place and her home. She learned that the plantation had been occupied in the mid seventeenth century by a woman named Elizabeth Grahm that the town suspected was a witch. After a few days and nothing had happened. Sara continued her renovations without worry, but that didn't continue for long. Strange occurrences began out of the ordinary which got her attention. Will this indeed be a beautiful new Victorian home for her to resettle in or was there something more sinister going on? Grab this book by L. I. Abelmont and listen. The Narrator Schnaubelt does a nice job. In my opinion this is a well written story that will keep your intrest. I recommend it for teens and above.
