Beneath These Walls

By: Shade Owens

Narrated by: Amanda Davidson

Six months ago, my husband tried to kill me. Now, my sons and I are living in an old Victorian house passed down to me by my uncle. The house may be big, but the town is small. It's safe, which is something I haven't felt in a very long time. And best of all, it's very far away from my ex.

As soon as we move in, however, I discover that this house has an eerie reputation. Rumor has it my uncle was a mysterious man accused of atrocious things, which is drawing a lot of unwanted attention our way. And the last thing we need is attention; we need to stay invisible if we want to stay alive.

But how can we remain invisible when things keep happening in this house? Strange things. Horrific things that has the whole town watching. Maybe even him. We were supposed to be safe here, but it's becoming glaringly apparent to me that we're in real danger.

Then I remind myself: I'm a mother. And a mother will do anything to protect her children.

Great read

Some great plot twists, interesting story, there was only one part that wasn't explained well enough for me. Nice ending.

So much abuse talk

I was excited for a mystery and this whole book just kept going on about domestic violence with her ex husband. It seemed like that’s what the entire book was about the whole time. There was a twist at the end but it wasn’t worth the read.
