The Haunting of Hill House meets Knives Out in a bid for an inheritance that will leave Helen Vaughan either rich...or dead.
Helen Vaughan doesn't know why she and her mother left their ancestral home at Harrowstone Hall, called Harrow, or why they haven't spoken to their extended family since. So when her grandfather dies, she's shocked to learn that he has left everything—the house, the grounds, and the money—to her. The inheritance comes with one condition: She must stay on the grounds of Harrow for one full year, or she'll be left with nothing.
There is more at stake than money. For as long as she can remember, Harrow has haunted Helen's dreams—and now those dreams have become a waking nightmare. Helen knows that if she is going to survive the year, she needs to uncover the secrets of Harrow. Why is the house built like a labyrinth? What is digging the holes that appear in the woods each night? And why does the house itself seem to be making her sick?
With each twisted revelation, Helen questions what she knows about Harrow, her family, and even herself. She no longer wonders if she wants to leave...but if she can.

Only that's easier said than done. Helen is thrown into Harrow without knowing who she can really trust. She's surrounded by a family she only recently met; a cold & formal grandmother along with aunts, uncles, cousins & the grounds keeper & his intriguing & bewitching (wink wink) daughter. Everyone seems to have an ulterior motive & not to mention the fact that the shadows from the book's title can actually hurt you & and may, in fact, be more than shadows
The plot unwinds to tell a story you think you know or knew. As the reader & Helen slowly unravel the horrors of Harrow & the Vaughn family, Kate Alice Marshall brings you into the story.
Once everything has been revealed, one can't help but think back at the clues we were given. After the first major twist, I was already excited at the prospect of a re-read. These plot twists were not there for the sake of a twist. They paid off & gave you an even greater appreciation for what Marshall crafted for us.
TLDR: It is everything you could want from a gothic atmospheric thriller. We have a sapphic MC who doesn't just pine for the girl she likes & who, with her found family, figure out the real history of the Vaughns & try their hand at finally breaking the vicious cycle started a century & a half back. Oh also fuck the patriarchy with cosmic & body horror vibes... but it’s a lot more nuanced than that.
