Publisher's summary

It began as their dream home...but soon became their worst nightmare.
From award-winning writer Brandon Massey comes a riveting thriller of the supernatural invading the lives of an ordinary family.
Len and Olivia Bowden had been seeking the ideal home in which to raise their daughter, Kennedy. The classic Victorian in a historic Atlanta neighborhood had everything they were looking for: lots of room in which to grow, friendly neighbors, and best of all, a bargain price, the result of a bank foreclosure. Hardly able to believe their good fortune, they move in and begin making plans for a promising future.
Then the stranger arrives at their front door. An elderly man, he claims that a con artist deceived him in a mortgage deal, leading to the foreclosure on the house into which they’ve moved. He asserts that the property still rightfully belongs to him.
And he demands that they move out within three days. Or else.
When they refuse to give in to his demands, they are confident the incident will blow over, and they take reassurance in their legal rights to the home. But the disturbing confrontation with the stranger is only the beginning...
Doors open and shut on their own. Footsteps creak across the old floors. And young Kennedy is convinced that she sees monsters lurking in the shadows...
As the incidents worsen, they realize that their very lives depend upon finding out what's really going on. But once they finally discover the shocking truth about the old house and its mysterious former resident, it may already be too late.

the narration destroys this story

the story plot is interesting. I figured out where the author was going with this pretty quickly. it still was a good story. the AI is awful. no emotion. flat. dull. boring. I found it hard to stay focused. AI narration is killing audible

the digitized voice.

I don't think I'll be listening to anymore digital voices if I have other options. Just as I start enjoying the story, I'm reminded that it's digital with mispronounced words. I adore the author but the stories don't have a personal touch anymore. Using digital is probably cheaper, but the listeners are actually paying with disappointment.

AI generated reading

Absolutely love the books but the AI generated reading takes out that raw emotion and correct pronunciation for certain dialects. Not a fan of the AI readings 😞

Get rid of virtual voice!!

This may have been a great story if not for the mechanical robotic nature of virtual voice. Unfortunately, it made me lose interest in this story! Had to move on to something more enticing.

Good story

This was a good supernatural story. It’s unfortunate that an actual person didn’t read the audiobook. I found myself making faces when the conversation seemed off because a computer voice just can’t pull it off. That distracted from the story and why I couldn’t give higher stars overall. I do believe that a human performance would have made the experience great. I really did enjoy the characters and plot.

good storyline

I love all of Brandon Massey stories his writing skills are brilliant! I really didn't care for the virtual narrator to flat and not enough characters engaging and differentiate in voices
