Kindle version available for pre-order now!

"Amy and Kevin are thousands of kilometers away from home with their children, determined to help their daughter Maggie toughen up in the last few weeks before she begins her high school journey. When they arrive on the east coast and enter their summer rental home, it's clear that danger lurks in the walls. It burns with anger, raging against all of them, threatening to destroy more than just their sanity. Old family secrets will be exposed, relationships tested, and flesh burned before the house and the vengeful spirit within it are finished with them. The Burning House is a story of grief, mental illness, mad science and ghostly flames that threaten to end one family's existence in the name of revenge."

Paperback and ebook will be available on Amazon worldwide on April 1, 2026!

Note for reviewers: this is not extreme horror (compared to Soup). There are moments of gore, but The Burning House is a dark ghost story with some fun weird science, discussion of anxiety disorders and family dysfunction, and betrayal. No SA, animal cruelty or s*x.

Age recommendations: 13+ (if they can read Stephen King, they will be fine with this)
