I love, love, love ghost stories. The Invited by Jennifer McMahon handles the idea of a haunted house a bit differently. Instead of moving into an existing house, Helen and Nate are building a house from scratch, doing all of the work themselves while they live in a trailer on the property. Once Helen begins researching local history and seeking out salvaged pieces with ties to the place, things start getting spooky. It's not a fast paced book, but the ghost is downright chilling.
Hattie Breckenridge was killed by her neighbors, her body sunk deep into the bog, and she's never left the land. If you like reading ghost stories late at night, I highly recommend this one.
Disclosure -- The publisher provided me with an advance review copy.
