Revenge and rage drip from this book. A grandmother and granddaughter know one thing: they can never leave their family home. Haunted by the past, the house is hungry for vengence and the women can only comply.
Written from two points of view, the unnamed characters reveal the house's story and their family's story one chapter at a time. I found this book haunting, uncomfortable and emotional. I could feel the creepiness of the house, I could hear the gnawing of the spirits, and I could feel the rage of the place.
If you like books about feminine rage and revenge, you might like this book.
