Description

Sixteen-year-old Constance Townsend has spent most of her life pretending the thing in the west bedroom isn’t real. But it has watched her ever since the night her parents died.

Connie’s aunt doesn’t believe in ghosts. She believes in bills, bad luck, and keeping a roof over their heads. When money runs out, her aunt rents the spare room to a mother and her young son, forcing Connie to share the house with strangers who don’t know what lives inside it.

Even Connie’s best friend—not boyfriend— Ronan doesn’t believe her. Until the boy starts seeing it too.

As the shadow grows stronger, Connie can no longer dismiss the haunting. It knows her. It wants her. And the longer she refuses to remember why, the more it reaches for the people she loves.

Connie must uncover the truth buried in her own memory before the darkness consumes them all.

In the Corner of Aunt Millie’s House is a Pacific Northwest gothic YA novel about grief, memory, and the terrifying things that grow in the dark when no one is willing to look.
