The Haunting of Ashburn House

Okay, What the heck happened?! This book made me a fan of Darcy Coates and she is now an auto-buy author for me. I loved this story from start to finish and I loved the characters both in town and at Ashburn. You meet Adrienne, who moves to Ashburn House after a family member dies( I believe it was her aunt or grandma). The mansion is crumbling and the town is full of rumors about it and its past owners. As Adrienne investigates, she learns more about the deaths of her ancestors at Ashburn while also struggling to figure out when she needs to keep lighting a candle on Friday night.

Towards the end, you find that the murder of her ancestors came at the hands of one of their daughters, who has since been buried on the property. She comes to life again trying to take back Ashburn but Adrienne isn't willing to give up the house she is making that quickly. It is the story of her survival while being attacked by the monster who is a former family member. Oh and for certain readers info, THE CAT DOES NOT DIE.
