Description
Recently widowed and rendered penniless by her Ponzi-scheming husband, Julia Bishop is eager to start anew. So when a stranger appears on her doorstep with a job offer, she finds herself accepting the mysterious yet unique position: caretaker to his mother, Amaris Sinclair, the famous and rather eccentric horror novelist whom Julia has always admired...and who the world believes is dead.
When she arrives at the Sinclairs' enormous estate on Lake Superior, Julia begins to suspect that there may be sinister undercurrents to her "too-good-to-be-true" position. As Julia delves into the reasons of why Amaris chose to abandon her successful writing career and withdraw from the public eye, her search leads to unsettling connections to her own family tree, making her wonder why she really was invited to Havenwood in the first place, and what monstrous secrets are still held prisoner within its walls.

Another pleasure to listen to!
This is the 3 book by this Author I have listened to and it was as good as the first two. My favorite so far is The Tale of Halcyon Crane! On to the 4th.
This book! it has stayed with me all day, I've been thinking about the ending. I'm left wondering about this poor soul

Predictable but I Had a Good Time
I saw what was going on a mile away, as they say, but you know? I had fun! There is a chance I would be less happy if I'd paid for it, but it was included. Listen and enjoy.

Good book but….
I enjoyed the book and it definitely held my attention With the twists and turns. There are a couple of things that don’t make sense to me. Like why mention that cannibal beast at the beginning? I thought that would be a big part of the book but it wasn’t mentioned again. I also don’t get the epilogue, and I want things to wrap up neatly!!

Haunting
When I finished listening to this novel I was reminded of the quote in Shakespeare's Hamlet:
'There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy (science)'
From the opening line until the end I was intrigued. I loved all of the twists and turns.
Can't wait to listen to another. The narrator was excellent.

An Under-Rated Gem!
A brilliant story brought to life by a talented and engaging narrator, this book deserves a better blurb! Full of twists and turns, I didn't want the story of Havenwood to end. I hope there is a sequel, although I don't see how it could happen. The author presented characters real enough to breathe, and apparently bleed. The setting was a complete character as well, with a dark, fully fleshed out background of its own Can I have Havenwood without its wraith-inhabitants?
To say I loved this book is an understatement. Can I give it ten stars?
The pairing of story and narrator was perfect. I couldn't get enough and was quite sorry when the novel drew to a close.

I listen to hundreds of books a year. This one was amazing
This was a greener but I enjoyed it so much I am looking for another Wendy Webb book as soon as I leave this review. This is the rare book that leaves you wondering. I will probably listen to it again.

It’s a good listen, but frustrating at the same time
It’s definitely a good story, it keeps you engaged and wanting more. Problem is… the more doesn’t quite come and the ending feels like a failed attempt at a “twist”.
I personally felt quite frustrated with how the main character feels like a damsel in distress and also the one and only trope.
It’s not a bad listen overall, it’s just not remarkable.

Not a bad plot but shoddy writing
The damsel in distress theme was annoying. Plus, the author keeps repeating “I felt chill downs my spine,” every alternate line. It’s not a bad story but so poorly crafted. The narrator was good. I have read another book by this author and I enjoyed it. Am guessing this is her earlier work.
