Publisher Description

Tananarive Due won the American Book Award for her first novel, The Living Blood. Publishers Weekly called it “one of the most talked about debuts in the horror field since the advent of Stephen King.” In The Good House, Due sets a story of ancient powers and modern retribution in a small Pacific Northwest town.

Angela Toussaint and her teenage son usually spend a few weeks every summer at “The Good House,” her late grandmother’s mansion. But there, during a Fourth of July party, terrible forces are unleashed that blow Angela’s world apart. Two years later, Angela returns to the house to reclaim her life. She must confront an evil that has been poisoning her family for generations.

"I thought this was a great read. Moved along at an excellent pace and at one point I was actually AFRAID! That has never happened to me before! If you're looking for a good mystery/suspense (not so much horror) then pick this up!"
