Description
Basit Deniau's houses were haunted to begin with.
A house embedded with an artificial intelligence is a common thing: a house that is an artificial intelligence, infused with a thinking creature that is not human? That is something else. But now Deniau's been dead a year, and Rose House is locked up tight, as commanded by the architect's will: all his possessions and files and sketches are confined in its archives, and their only keeper is Rose House itself. Rose House, and one other.
Dr. Selene Gisil, one of Deniau's former protege, is permitted to come into Rose House once a year. Until this week, Dr. Gisil was the only person whom Rose House spoke to.
But even an animate intelligence that haunts a house has some failsafes common to all AIs. For instance: all AIs must report the presence of a dead body to the nearest law enforcement agency.
There is a dead person in Rose House. Rose House, having completed its duty of care and informed Detective Maritza Smith of the China Lake police precinct that there is in fact a dead person inside it, dead of unnatural causes-has—shut up.
No one can get inside Rose House, except Dr. Gisil. And someone died there. And someone may be there still.

Tech-noir murder mystery in a haunted house
Rose/House, the novella, is a curious mélange of genres: a tech-noir murder mystery, a haunted house story, a heist gone wrong. Rose/House, the place, is a pyramid with an entombed and preserved corpse, treasures, a dreadful guardian, and would-be plunderers of its secrets. Rose/House, the novella, is poetry, an ode to ambitious architecture, and a puzzle-box that leaves you with only the answers you discover for yourself.
Rose/House, the place, is a work of architectural beauty, out in the middle of an inhospitable desert, shut to everyone, hostile to the presence of human life, lost to the world when its brilliant architect creator died. Rose/House is about hermetically private art like Goya's Black Paintings, disturbing murals on the walls of his house's second floor, and the records the artist formerly known as Prince sealed away in the vault in his basement. There is something uncomfortable in taking art that the artists hid and left for no one when they died and making that art for someone, distributing it, making immortal that which was meant to perish from this world with its creator, violating the will of the dead. Rose/House wants you to sit with the discomfort of that violation and weigh it against the act of art preservation.
