Bookroo's summary

Bram seeks refuge in Louth, a town shrouded in mystery and whispers of the 'Dead Girls.' Her uncle's mansion, scarred by tragedy, holds chilling secrets. As Bram delves deeper, she faces a haunting choice: uncover the truth or become the next victim. Can she escape the shadows of the past, or will the curse claim her too?

From the publisher

Stay up all night with this modern day Rebecca! Perfect for fans of Truly Devious–a haunting story about a new girl in an old town filled with dark secrets . . . that might just kill her. People say the house is cursed.It preys on the weakest, and young women are its favorite victims.In Louth, they’re called the Dead Girls. All Bram wanted was to disappear–from her old life, her family’s past, and from the scandal that continues to haunt her. The only place left to go is Louth, the tiny town on the Hudson River where her uncle, James, has been renovating an old mansion. But James is haunted by his own ghosts. Months earlier, his beloved wife died in a fire that people say was set by her daughter. The tragedy left James a shell of the man Bram knew–and destroyed half the house he’d so lovingly restored. The manor is creepy, and so are the locals. The people of Louth don’t want outsiders like Bram in their town, and with each passing day she’s discovering that the rumors they spread are just as disturbing as the secrets they hide. Most frightening of all are the legends they tell about the Dead Girls. Girls whose lives were cut short in the very house Bram now calls home. The terrifying reality is that the Dead Girls may have never left the manor. And if Bram looks too hard into the town’s haunted past, she might not either.
