For fans of The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson, Home Before Dark by Riley Sager, and Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia comes a chilling gothic horror where family secrets refuse to stay buried.

The Aberdeen Manor estate has always been shrouded in mystery—a sprawling mansion where every hallway hides a secret and every shadow tells a story.

For Maeve Adams, the estate is more than an inheritance.

It's home.

But when the horrifying truth about her biological father, Eric Stephenson—a sadistic serial killer—comes to light, everything she thought she knew begins to unravel. The house she once loved becomes a prison of unanswered questions, lingering nightmares, and a past determined to claw its way back into the present.

Security cameras surround the property, meant to keep danger out.

Instead, they capture something watching from the darkness.

As unexplained events escalate and old wounds reopen, Maeve and her family are forced into a terrifying battle against the secrets hidden within Aberdeen Manor. The deeper they dig, the more they realize some horrors were never meant to be uncovered.

Because some houses don't just keep secrets...

They protect them.

The Haunting of Aberdeen Manor is a suspense-filled gothic horror novel blending psychological terror, family tragedy, serial killers, and supernatural mystery into a story that will haunt readers long after the final page.
