The House at Watch Hill

A Novel

By: Karen Marie Moning

Narrated by: Amanda Leigh Cobb, Tim Campbell

#1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Marie Moning is back with a gripping, imaginative, and seductive new series in which a young woman moves to Divinity, Louisiana, to inherit a large fortune and a Gothic mansion full of mysteries and ominous secrets...

Zo Grey is reeling from the sudden death of her mother when she receives a surprising call from an attorney in Divinity, Louisiana, with the news she has been left an inheritance by a distant relative, the terms of which he will only discuss in person. Destitute and alone, with nothing left to lose, Zo heads to Divinity and discovers she is the sole beneficiary of a huge fortune and a monstrosity of a house that sits ominously at the peak of Watch Hill—but she must live in it, alone, for three years before the house, or the money, is hers.

Met with this irresistible opportunity to finally build a future for herself, Zo puts aside her misgivings about the foreboding Gothic mansion and the strange circumstances, and moves in, where she is quickly met by a red-eyed Stygian owl and an impossibly sexy Scottish groundskeeper.

Her new home is full of countless secrets and mystifying riddles, with doors that go nowhere, others that are impossible to open, and a turret into which there is no visible means of ingress. And the townspeople are odd…

What Zo doesn’t yet know is that her own roots lie in this very house and that in order to discover her true identity and awaken her dormant powers, she will have to face off against sinister forces she doesn’t quite comprehend—or risk being consumed by them.

“This book has everything! A witchy, sexy read that made me sleep with the lights on…Karen Marie Moning at her best!”

-Sophie Jordan, New York Times bestselling author

Can’t wait for the next one!

She’s baaack! Read it in a day. Please don’t make us wait too long, Karen!

Not what I expected

The story was enthralling and difficult to put down! However, without spoiling it for those who have not yet listened (or read), I can only say I’m disappointed at the end. I needed to understand who stands for the good and who is not before ending this listen! It’s uncomfortable waiting for the next book at this juncture. Still, I will watch for the next book in the series.

Book 2 please!

Loved the story, pacing was great, and the narrators did a wonderful job. So glad to be back in KM world!

Leaves you wanting more…for better or worse.

I am a big fan of KMM and have read all her work. At first I didn’t think I’d like this book but then it drew me in. I wish the spice scenes were spicier. I wish there were more answers. I wish the characters weren’t so mysterious. I’m annoyed I have to wait who knows how long for the next part of a story that could be a great series. I want more but am annoyed by how much more.

I love finding a New Author

Thrilling story that kept my attention. I didn't want to go to bed. I can't wait for books 2 & 3!
