The dead can’t harm you. The living can.



Why can’t a house ever be just a house?



When Ellen, Sue, and Tanya escape to a historic beachfront mansion in Biloxi, Mississippi, they expect margaritas on the balcony and sunsets over the Gulf—not a violent haunting.



From the moment they arrive, something in the house makes its presence known. Objects shift. Doors slam. The air turns ice cold. And the spirit tethered to the property is not a gentle soul seeking peace.



He is angry.



As the women dig into the home’s past, they uncover ties to one of the Gulf Coast’s darkest chapters: organized crime, orphan exploitation, and the shadowy reign of the Dixie Mafia. The spirit haunting the summer house carried damning secrets to his grave—and someone powerful worked very hard to keep them buried.



When Ellen and her friends attempt to expose the truth, the threats don’t come from beyond the grave.



They come from the living.



And this time, the danger isn’t just supernatural.



In this gripping installment of the Mystery House Series, historical corruption and present-day peril collide in a haunting tale of buried crimes, dangerous men, and the courage to bring darkness into the light.
