A Haunting In Gig Harbor| The Rikoppe Lane

Jo drove up the driveway, gravel crunching beneath the tires, looking up at the towering witches cap of her new home. The manor, her escape from tragedy, but not for long. An uneasy feeling lingers, and darkness descends. She visits a historical society to find out more, and learns more than the registry knew, when the house begins to reveal it on its own.

The profound family bonds, the flourishing of friendships, and the rescue of three English bulldogs contribute to the powerful themes of womanhood, family resilience, and innovation in navigating life's challenges to forge a new path. The characters are so lifelike that you feel present with them, sharing tea and eavesdropping on their conversations as they deal with a house imbued with malevolent energy. The book captivates you with a plot that thickens progressively, having already endeared the characters to you so deeply that their safety and success become your concern. As the darkness intensifies and eerie, frightening events start to occur within the house, the story becomes unputdownable, compelling you to ensure that Jo, her family, and her dogs are secure.

The narrative paints such vivid imagery of the Victorian home that you'll imagine yourself traversing its hallways lined with velvet wallpaper, uncovering hidden passageways, hearing the cries of malevolence lurking in the dark, and sitting on the edge of your seat, hoping Jo makes it out alive.
