Sam Montgomery expects comfort when she visits her mother’s North Carolina home: cozy nights with wine, TV mysteries, and easy laughter. Instead, she finds sterile white walls where warmth once thrived, a mother who startles at shadows, and vultures circling above the garden roses.
The house feels wrong, stripped of its soul. Then Sam discovers jars of teeth buried in the yard, and her mother’s fear suddenly makes sense. Something dark has taken root beneath the foundations, twisting through their family’s past and pushing into the present.
From award-winning author T. Kingfisher, A House With Good Bones is a Southern Gothic that peels back the wallpaper of domestic bliss to reveal rot, secrets, and horrors that prove some homes are built to bury more than memories.
