The Haunting of Emily Grace

Emily Grace has lost everyone she cares about, but rather than wallow in grief, she decides to work for a secretive millionaire renovating his mansion on a secluded island. The owner of the home, Cameron, is also grieving, since his wife disappeared in what appears to be a sailing accident over a month ago. The folks living on the island believe the house Emily’s working on is cursed, and mysterious events start to happen there when Cameron’s daughter, Chloe, arrives. Strange sounds, Cameron’s wife’s clothes folded in a closet, and other oddities that put Emily Grace in a bad light with her employer all put her on edge. She starts to question everything, including the motivations behind the friendships of a couple of others who live on the island. Both of them tell her different stories of what’s happening in Cameron’s creepy house, making it difficult for her to focus since she thinks that she’ll be next to disappear. Taylor takes the reader on a journey that never falters, invoking the setting and isolation so well that readers will see the fog, feel the darkness, and hear the faint footsteps throughout. When diving into this, make sure you are in a crowded room with bright lights.
