Thank you to readingdeals.com, Killarney Traynor and Margaret Traynor. I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.
Its Christmas 1971 and Michael Wright has an obsession with his business owned River House, the location of a holiday murder - suicide 25 years prior in 1946. While on a December 23rd trip to a family home with his wife Susan and two of their friends, brother and sister Johnny and Linda, Michael finds himself diverting from the original planned route to stop at the notorious River House. On the cusp of a suspected bad winter storm, Michaels wife and his friends are not keen on the idea of stopping their plans to visit a boarded up vacant and reportedly haunted home, they go along for the ride.
Once they arrive at the home, they find a way inside and begin to look around. Soon after they begin hearing, seeing and feeling things that do not make sense for an vacant home. After urging from the group, Michael decides it may be in their better interest to get back on the road and get ahead of the storm. The storm or forces of the house have different plans in store for them.
While trying to leave, they are involved in a vehicle accident, totaling the car and forcing the foursome to seek refuge in River House. Resigned to their fate, the group attempts to make the best of it and hunkers down to wait out the storm, until either morning or help arrives.
Once semi-settled inside the home, the foursome continues to hear giggling, footfalls and Christmas music. The strange noises only get louder and more prevalent, placing the group in a battle of wits against their own sanity.
Three of the four group members are possessed during their stay. Susan was possessed by Helene the murdered homeowner. Johnny was possessed by Charlie, Helenes husband and accused murderer. Linda was possessed by an unknown force, turning her into a party go-er from 1946.
It takes a while but the foursome figures out that the wreck was no accident and they are pulled to the house for a reason. They are being possessed to find out the truth of the murder - suicide.
