Refuge on Crescent Hill

By: Melanie Dobson

Narrated by: Emily Pike Stewart

Moving home after a recent job loss was supposed to reassure Camden Bristow and give her time to decide what to do next. But when she arrives in Etherton, Ohio, she discovers that her grandmother, who she hasn't talked to in years, has passed away and “home” is an empty mansion, 150 years old — not exactly the comfort Camden was looking for.

What happened to the house she played in as a child, the bedtime stories that told of secret passageways and runaway slaves, and all those family memories? When antiques start disappearing and footsteps are heard, some of those memories start to creep back, and Camden wonders if her grandmother’s bedtime stories might actually be true. What really happened here? How was her grandmother involved? Who still has access to the house? And for what purpose?

As she works to uncover the past and present mysteries harbored in her home, Camden also uncovers secrets about her family that could change the town — and her life — forever.

Not as interesting as previous stories.

I’ve really enjoyed the stories by Melanie Dobson that were set in WWII. This one was not as interesting and the main character a little boring.

Wonderful story!

I Loved the story. As usual Melanie Dobson writes with a bit of history woven into an exciting tale.
