The Starter House by Sonja Condit Coppenbarger
Every house holds a secret. Some secrets can kill. Lacey has found the house of her dreams: the perfect home to raise the child she's expecting. Soon, the beautiful sunlit rooms will be filled with joy. But the house doesn't want Lacey. The house is already occupied. Beneath the dark stairway lies a secret... No child has survived this house. No woman emerged in tact. Lacey has made a mistake. Now she must fight to survive it.
Beautifully written in luminous prose, The Starter House kept me up late at night with its disturbing, tangled tale of childhood and what it means to be a parent.. Condit's prose has so much heart and emotion... I couldn't put it down -- Yangsze Choo, author of THE GHOST BRIDE
