Award-winning author Micaiah Johnson invites you to Abernathy House.

A house, itself, is nothing. Itโ€™s not a shelter until it is sheltering someone. A house is a housefire, waiting for its match. A house is a ghost story, waiting for its death.

At the end of the Civil War, a daughter of the confederacy made what she thought was an innocent to build a house where nothing bad could happen. But peace came at a price, and one hundred and seventy years later Shantell and her friends are about to discover where all that darkness ended up.

When Shantellโ€™s best friend, Avery, inherits a house big enough to make their dreams of a sanctuary come true, sheโ€™s too cautious to be optimistic. A lifetime of loss โ€” her father to the Iraq war, her brother to police violence, and her mother to suicide โ€” has taught her cynicism, and even though Avery swears the house has never experienced a tragedy, she goes along expecting everything from black mold to evil spirits.

But not only is the house in better shape than theyโ€™d expected, it makes them better Shantellโ€™s anxiety stops flaring up, terminally shallow Avery is suddenly capable of deeper emotions. Tobias, Averyโ€™s older brother and their contractor for the job, even stops chain smoking.

Thereโ€™s an eeriness to the calm, and itโ€™s almost a relief when they realize they do not walk alone in Abernathy House. If nothing bad has never happened here, where are all these ghosts coming from? As they dig into the houseโ€™s history, Shantell, Avery, and Tobias discover that thereโ€™s only one thing worse than a house thatโ€™s a house that desperately wants to be.
