Fourteen-year-old Sarah Crane has lost everything: her mother, her home, and her sense of safety. Now stuck with a cruel foster family and bullied at school, her only escape is her art and the strange comfort of two unlikely friends: Nick, a classmate tormented by voices, and Bettina, a reclusive art teacher with a haunted mansion.
But Sarah’s paintings begin to reveal terrifying scenes from the past—scenes that match Nick’s disturbing visions. The house has secrets, and they’re bleeding into the present.
As ghostly forces awaken, Sarah and Nick find themselves at the center of a reckoning centuries in the making. And this time, the victims are ready to strike back.
In House of Reckoning, John Saul delivers a chilling tale of power, pain, and supernatural revenge.
