The Witch

About this book

Julia has always been the logical one. A former math tutor, she doesn't believe in Santa Claus, and she only believes in ghosts because of something that happened to her long ago, in one very specific place. That place is Pemberton, her grandmother's sprawling seventeenth-century estate in the small Massachusetts town of Woodhaven. Now twenty-seven, homeless and out of options after losing her Manhattan apartment, Julia finally returns to the house she swore she would never enter again. Her grandmother is frail, her great-aunt Ethel is staying under the same roof, and the house itself still wears its bear-headed door knocker like a warning. Julia tells herself she is simply there to help and to feel useful again. But Pemberton has long memories, and it is not ready to let go of its secrets. The Witch moves between the present day and 1692, where a young woman named Caroline faces a fate she never expected. Two timelines, one old house and a past that refuses to stay buried make this a gripping, fast-paced read for fans of psychological suspense with a gothic, haunted-house chill. Written in short, addictive chapters in Freida McFadden's signature style, this thriller is easy to start and hard to put down.
