Review ~ The House on Foster Hill by Jaime Jo Wright

Coming Soon!!!

Expected publication: November 21st 2017 by Bethany House Publishers
Kaine Prescott is no stranger to death. When her husband died two years ago, her pleas for further investigation into his suspicious death fell on deaf ears. In desperate need of a fresh start, Kaine purchases an old house sight unseen in her grandfather's Wisconsin hometown. But one look at the eerie, abandoned house immediately leaves her questioning her rash decision. And when the house's dark history comes back with a vengeance, Kaine is forced to face the terrifying realization she has nowhere left to hide. 
A century earlier, the house on Foster Hill holds nothing but painful memories for Ivy Thorpe. When an unidentified woman is found dead on the property, Ivy is compelled to discover her identity. Ivy's search leads her into dangerous waters and, even as she works together with a man from her past, can she unravel the mystery before any other lives--including her own--are lost?

My Review
5 STARS!!! 

The House on Foster Hill is Ms Wright’s debut novel and I can say that I am a die-hard fan already! This is a dual timeline story and what a thriller it is! I was mesmerized by the suspense element in this story. It was creepy without gore and kept me on the edge of my seat. A few times I actually looked up from the book to make sure no one was skulking about.

Kaine, the contemporary heroine, and Ivy, the heroine from a century earlier, are both strong, tenacious women. They are each determined to solve the mysteries in their lives, no matter what anyone thinks about them. They are interconnected through the house on Foster Hill and it was fascinating to watch the story of their shared history unfold. Foster House possesses a dark secret that needs to be revealed. Will Kaine and Ivy, each in their own era, triumph over the menace that lies within?

If you enjoy stories that make you think twice before turning off the lights, then you will like this book.

I was provided a copy from the publisher through Netgalley for review purposes. No compensation has been received.

~Happy Reading, Y'all~

  1. You write such compelling reviews Anne! It is always wonderful to come across an author who keeps you on the edge of your seat and turning pages in anticipation! I confess it has been a good while since I have read a book that made me do that. I have a stack of books that I need to read, but other projects always get in the way, lol! I hope you are having a lovely week so far, many blessings to you :)
