Publisher's summary

Spite Island

There's an island up in Gold Country at the northern end of Snapdragon Lake. It's named Manchester for the family that owns it, but the locals call it Spite Island. There's a single lonely mansion on that island and a group of authors have been invited to write about its ghosts and its mysteries. But the real mystery is, who will survive this luxurious but deadly retreat?

A Cursed Family

When a powerful storm cuts Spite Island off from civilization, the mansion’s guests are trapped, and the ghost stories that once amused them become a deadly reality. Spite House is alive with bloodthirsty entities, and now, only power-mad matriarch Agnes Manchester is amused. As the island and its ghosts weave a deadly web around its victims, lives are lost and danger lurks in every sinuous black shadow. Those who survive must face the dark power that propels the legion of cursed creatures that walk the halls—the living and the dead alike.

When Agnes’ estranged grandson, Cody Manchester, faces the shocking secret that destroyed his childhood, he realizes that he must confront not only the horrors of his past, but of the island itself, its ghosts, and his own tainted bloodline. The only way to survive is to uncover his grandmother’s perverse secrets and the horrifying mysteries that the island holds close to its malignant dark heart.

Hauntingly Thrilling!

Wow.... Just when I thought the story couldn't get any better, author's Thorne & Cross blew me away with Spiteful Creatures 👏
I wasn't expecting the Manchester's secrets to be so ghoulishly entertaining, but it definitely kept me intrigued to the end. This was my favorite out of all three! Not only is the family cursed, but the mansion is ALIVE.
If you love thrilling stories about haunted mansions, ghosts, mystery, supernatural creatures, horror, believable characters, and fantastic storytelling, don't pass this one up. All three books in The Spite House Chronicles will NOT disappoint. BRAVO 👏

Fulfilled

I purchased this the day it became available Audible. I listened to it to and from my commute to work. After the first I was hooked. And the second left me needing to know more. I was upset that my favorite character died in book 2 but that just proved to me that they wrote that character perfectly. As for book 3, the secrets were exposed and a few characters got what they deserved.

Murder, Curses, Secrets, and Dark Magic

Wow, this book was phenomenally written with well developed characters and plot. Agnes Manchester knows the secrets that the island holds as well as the ones she holds close to her dark heart. The island is despised by the locals because they know of the evil it holds. I could say so many things, but it would give away spoilers, and I won't do that. I really enjoyed listening to this book. I was hooked on this suspenseful, supernatural filled storyline that contained everything from ghost, counterfeit ghosts, and a spiteful little fey. I will say this, though, if you like mystery, suspense, the supernatural, and karma, you will love this book. I received this book for free upon my request, but it has no bearing on my honest, unbiased review that I am leaving here voluntarily of my own free will.
