Perfect for you if...

You love Gothic mysteries set in decaying mansions where every character harbours a dark secret.
You appreciate psychological suspense where the real danger comes from family manipulation and gaslighting.
You want a mystery that rewards careful attention to unreliable narrators and hidden motivations.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer fast-paced plots with constant action over atmospheric, character-driven mysteries.
You want a contemporary setting—this reads as mid-century Gothic fiction, which may feel dated to some readers.
You need romance to be the main plot rather than a subplot with the trustworthy outsider.

About this book

Malinda Rice returns to Silverhill, her family's New Hampshire estate, after decades away to ensure her mother receives a proper burial in the family plot. Carrying unresolved trauma from her past, she seeks to understand the mysteries and conflicts that have fractured her family. At Silverhill, Malinda encounters her grandmother—a feared, controlling figure—and her aunt, who has retreated into fantasy. She finds the family doctor to be her only trustworthy ally, though he remains guarded. As Malinda investigates the truth behind family secrets, she discovers the mansion conceals deeper and darker mysteries rooted in lies, distorted memories, and broken lives. While pursuing answers, she must also protect her own sanity and safety. Phyllis A. Whitney is a recipient of the Mystery Writers of America Grand Master Award for Lifetime Achievement. This ebook includes an illustrated biography of the author with rare images from her estate.
