Más información sobre el libro

A social media influencer purchases a murder house to renovate, only to discover unsettling truths behind the peeling wallpaper in this psychological gothic thriller. Sarah Slade is seeking a fresh start with her husband in a charming yet dilapidated Victorian home, which she plans to showcase on her popular lifestyle blog. This project also serves as a distraction from her crumbling marriage. However, Black Wood House carries a dark history marked by a gruesome murder-suicide. As Sarah attempts to mask the house's horrific past, she realizes that a new facade cannot hide all secrets. The renovations prove challenging; workers behave erratically and face bizarre accidents, and Sarah struggles to sleep in a bedroom with a bloodstained floor while mysterious footsteps echo from the attic. When ominous notes begin to appear, she fears for her life, suspecting that someone—or something—wants her dead, whether it's her husband, her neighbors, or the house itself. With each renovation, Black Wood House seems to grow more hostile, and Sarah's life spirals further out of control, blurring her grip on reality. As she clings to the lies she’s woven to hide her own secrets, she must confront whether the cost of her new life is worth the unraveling it brings.
