The Last Guest at Blackwood House: A Gothic Psychological Thriller (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798194514090)

When journalist Leah Mercer receives a letter from the woman who destroyed her family, she should burn it.

Instead, she goes to Blackwood House.

Twenty-two years ago, Leah's father confessed to murdering Alice Blackwood, the rebellious daughter of one of Maine's wealthiest families. Alice's body was never found. The case ruined Leah's life long before it ever became her story.

Now the dying matriarch, Eliza Blackwood, claims there is more to the night Alice vanished than anyone knows.

At the crumbling cliffside estate, Leah finds a family built on lies, locked rooms, and rehearsed grief. A storm traps everyone inside. Footsteps echo in the sealed east wing. Old letters appear where no one could have left them. And someone in the house is willing to kill to keep the past buried.

The deeper Leah digs, the more impossible the truth becomes.

Because her father didn't tell the whole story.

Alice Blackwood was not the only one who fell that night.

A dark gothic psychological thriller about family secrets, wrongful conviction, dangerous loyalty, and the devastating cost of learning the truth.
