The Haunting of Solomon House

Marnie Vinge

A haunting gothic thriller about legacy, grief, and the haunted echoes of family secrets. 
Some inheritances should be left to the dead. 
Blair Graves doesn’t believe in ghosts—she grew up watching her father chase them for a living. His disappearance years ago was just one more reason to write off the supernatural as nonsense. 
After selling her family’s estate to cover her brother’s gambling debts, Blair sinks what’s left of her savings into a crumbling mansion known as Solomon House, hoping the project will fill the void left by loss and regret. But as strange sounds echo through its halls and flickers of movement appear in dark corners, Blair begins to question everything she thought she knew about her father, the Solomons who built the house, and herself. 
When an online paranormal investigator named Cash arrives, eager to document the haunting, the lines between skepticism and belief blur—and the ghosts of Solomon House begin to reveal the truth about what happened there, and what still lingers within. 
Richly atmospheric and emotionally charged, The Haunting of Solomon House is a gothic psychological thriller about family secrets, grief, and the stories that refuse to die—perfect for fans of Simone St. James, Jennifer McMahon, and Darcy Coates.
