Their lives would never be the same.
Colquitt and Walter Kennedy enjoyed a life of lazy weekends, gathering with the neighbors on their quiet, manicured street and sipping drinks on their patios. But when construction of a beautiful new home begins in the empty lot next door, their easy friendship and relaxed get-togethers are marred by strange accidents and inexplicable happenings.
Though Colquitt's rational mind balks at the idea of a "haunted" house, she cannot ignore the tragedies associated with it. It is as if the house preys on its inhabitants' weaknesses and slowly destroys the goodness in them -- ultimately driving them to disgrace, madness and even death.

A whirlpool so insidious and horrible that you don't know you're in it's grasp until you're under the surface already.
Easily the scariest and most horrific haunted house story I've encountered. It deserves a resurgence in popularity. This is why I read horror fiction - human stories, with layers of terror and irony that creep up on you. The Shining by way of Steel Magnolias.
