A real-life Latin American haunted mansion. A murky labyrinth of family secrets. A young, aristocratic woman desperate to escape her past. This haunting debut “introduces a powerful new voice in gothic horror” (Ana Reyes, New York Times bestselling author) and is perfect for fans of Mexican Gothic and The Shining.
In 1923 Soacha, Colombia, La Casona–an opulent mansion perched above the legendary Salto del Tequendama waterfall–was once home to Antonia and her family, who settle in despite their constant nightmares and the house’s malevolent spirit. But tragedy strikes when Antonia’s mother takes a fatal fall into El Salto and her father, consumed by grief, attempts to burn the house down with Antonia still inside.
Three years later, haunted by disturbing dreams and cryptic journal entries from her late mother, Antonia is drawn back to her childhood home when it is converted into a luxurious hotel. As Antonia confronts her fragmented memories and the dark history of the estate, she wrestles with unsettling questions she can no longer ignore: Was her mother’s death by her own hands, or was it by someone else’s?
In a riveting quest for answers, Antonia must navigate the shadows of La Casona as she unearths its darkest secrets in this “delicately told story of how the past always finds us–and how people can be haunted just as surely as places can” (Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author).
