The Bones of Our House

The spirits in Christine Folan's novel are certainly hair-raising, but her stark, unflinching portrait of family members becoming completely unrecognizable to one another is the most frightening thing of all.- Michelle Hogmire, Book Review Editor for KGB Lit Mag.There are things that wait in the dark.The century-old farmhouse was meant to be a haven for Anna Pall and her daughters, seventeen-year-old Nina and ten-year-old Sam. It was meant to be a fresh start following her bitter divorce from her unfaithful husband, and an opportunity for Anna to rebuild and strengthen her fractured bonds with her girls. Instead, the terrifying and violent events that occurred there ended up splashed on the pages of tabloids and newspapers, following Nina into her reclusive adulthood. Anna, Nina, and Sam are subject to the darkness in their new home, one that feeds on the pain and fears provided by the Pall women. The shades that hide in this darkness will test the delicate fragments of the family's sanity and leave at least one body in its wake.
