The Haunting of Kinnawe House is a ghost story that spans two eras in American history.
Matthew Rollins, an aspiring singer whose mother tried to murder him, takes a job as caretaker of Kinnawe House in Agamenticus, Maine. The haunting begins immediately upon Matthew's arrival, when the ghost of his mother appears. A threatening, ghostly stranger watches Matthew as he sleeps. The cellar is filled with mysterious, foul-smelling casks. And with each day, Matthew's insomnia gets worse.
The story alternates between the present, as Matthew struggles with failing health and increasingly violent hallucinations, and the 1740's, as a dark preacher populates his town with a community willing to sell their souls for a comfortable life. Past and present come together as Matthew learns, little by little, of his family's ties to Kinnawe House—and why the house will not rest until Matthew has taken his own life.
Destined to become a classic of the genre, the novel traces the destruction wrought by the preacher, Parthalán Kinnawe, over multiple generations. It also tells the story of a haunted young man who learns that, at his weakest, he is also as his strongest.
