Just Like Home

 Just Like Home

Just Like Home by Sarah Gailey                          Ghost Thrillers

(from Amazon)

“Come home.” Vera’s mother called and Vera obeyed. In spite of their long estrangement, in spite of the memories ― she's come back to the home of a serial killer. Back to face the love she had for her father and the bodies he buried there, beneath the house he'd built for his family.  Coming home is hard enough for Vera, and to make things worse, she and her mother aren’t alone. A parasitic artist has moved into the guest house out back and is slowly stripping Vera’s childhood for spare parts. He insists that he isn’t the one leaving notes around the house in her father’s handwriting… but who else could it possibly be?  There are secrets yet undiscovered in the foundations of the notorious Crowder House. Vera must face them and find out for herself just how deep the rot goes.


(My Review)

It's so hard to go back home - especially if your father was a serial killer.  Vera returns home to see her dying mother.  She left as soon as she could after her father was arrested for multiple murders.  When Vera returns, she discovers the house holds all of the secrets, all the way down to its very foundation.  This is a creepy read.
