Publisher's summary

Thirteen-year-old Angel Sullivan falls in love with her family's new home - the house that stands at Black Creek Crossing in the small town of Roundtree, Massachusetts. But the idyll is soon shattered as Angel learns a shocking secret about the house. It seems that a double murder took place there, and no one has lived at Black Creek Crossing since.

As Angel and her family begin to confront the mounting perils in their new dwelling, increasingly bizarre events occur in Roundtree: terrible storms strike; seemingly inexplicable "accidents" transpire; and rumors of witchcraft, a phenomenon that figured in the town's history hundreds of years earlier, begin to resurface.

Critic reviews

"Angel and Seth are two more of the immensely sympathetic and appealing teen protagonists that Saul excels at creating....[A] remarkably gratifying horror yarn." ( Booklist)

Trigger warning- themes of incest.

Not one of my favorites by Saul. Performance was fine, but the story was just meh.

Favorite Book

This is my favorite John Saul book. I have it in paperback, hardcover, & audio. I love to fall asleep to it. I honestly enjoyed it.
I love the storyline, the area that the story takes place. I love the fact of it being about Witches, & New England, the seasons, then the characters.
Then the narrator did an absolutely amazing job. He changed voices, had them have accents, also put feelings into the reading.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes Colonial times, Witches, New England, & mysteries.
Happy listening.
