When twelve-year-old Eliza Hart moves with her family into an abandoned mansion on the edge of Briarwood Hollow, she's told the house has been empty for decades.

But Ravencrest remembers.

Sixty-two years ago, a girl named Maribel died on the grand staircase, and the town quietly called it an accident. Now whispers echo in the walls, doors open on their own, and a hidden passage reveals clues meant to stay buried. As Eliza begins to uncover the truth, she realizes the house isn't haunted by anger-but by an unanswered question.

With the help of an unexpected friend and the brave woman who tried to stop a terrible wrong long ago, Eliza pieces together a mystery the town doesn't want solved. The closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous her questions become.

Because some secrets fade with time.

And some wait patiently for someone brave enough to listen.

A cozy-spooky middle grade mystery about courage, truth, and the stories houses never forget.
