The only thing scarier than disembodied voices and misty apparitions reaching out from beyond the grave, is spending two weeks with your ex-boyfriend's terrifying and deranged family. When Sadie Smith had agreed to travel to England for her friend's wedding, she'd thought her free time would be spent investigating abandoned castles for signs of the paranormal. Instead, the threats to her sanity came in the form of a family whose idea of a good time was casually joking about poisoning each other and trying to force their common enemy, Jefferson Parrish, into an insane asylum where they thought he belonged. But even with the glaringly masochistic family trying their best to make Sadie leave town, a hint of truth resides in their many lies. The truth about what happened to Jefferson's childhood friend who went missing in the woods behind his house when he was young. Even estranged from her boyfriend, Sadie knows Jefferson had nothing to do with the disappearance, and must clear his name with hints coming to her from beyond the grave, before his family succeeds in locking him up.
