Publisher's Synopsis
From the author of the award-winning novel The Meadows, comes the second book in the Legacy of Darkness series about a woman trapped by her fears living in a house haunted by a dark legacy and a history of ritual sacrifices.
A violent attack nearly a decade ago left twenty-seven-year-old Avery Tullinger unable to walk outside. Following her estranged father's death, she inherits Whickering Place, a historic mansion in Asheville, North Carolina, currently occupied by two tenants: Colin Gallagher, a young doctor, and his mysterious brother, Pearse. Soon after moving in, Avery learns that her father's life in the house was consumed by the supernatural ... and the activity appears to be starting again. As paranormal events within the house escalate, so does Avery's attraction for Pearse, even though Colin warns her that his younger brother is involved in a dangerous cult called The Colony. Faced with losing Whickering Place, her heart, and even her life, Avery is forced to make unimaginable choices. And as Whickering Place becomes the focal point for The Colony's bloody rituals, the house's dark history threatens to repeat itself. Both a novel of terror and a story of love, Whickering Place is a paranormal thriller of nonstop suspense about the risks of living and loving outside safe boundaries and the relationships that change, motivate, and sustain us. Praise for The Meadows (winner of the 2020 Independent Publisher Award in Horror and a finalist in the 2018 Chanticleer Paranormal Book Awards): "This was a chilling story... For those who love the supernatural filled with demons and cults then this is the book for you."--Paranormal Romance Guild "...a terrifying tale of the supernatural.
