Synopsis: When a young couple tries to resurrect a ramshackle B&B, a terrifying evil is awakened in this &“deliciously creepy thriller&” (New York Times–bestselling author Kevin O&’Brien).For Jack and Annabel Devlin, inheriting an old bed and breakfast in western Massachusetts seems like a perfect chance to start over. But Annabel&’s first impressions of the Blue Boy Inn don&’t ease her nerves. Locals whisper about its long history of murders and mysterious disappearances. And everything about the gloomy Victorian draws Annabel back into childhood nightmares . . . Soon Annabel hears noises within the walls and glimpses something—or things—scurrying in the shadows. The locked attic, the bricked-up fireplace . . . for years they&’ve helped keep a ravenous evil at bay. Now Jack and Annabel&’s arrival has stirred the house to life again. Debts must be paid, hungers will be satisfied, and one by one, Annabel&’s worst fears are about to come true . . .
