Some ghosts never rest. Some cities never repent.
When Black investigative journalist Zora Sinclair moves into a beautifully renovated Victorian home in a gentrified Southern neighborhood, she expects fresh starts and new bylines?not the ghosts of a murdered past clawing through the walls.
Beneath the floorboards of her dream home lie the secrets of a forgotten Black community, erased by violence, buried under lies, and paved over in the name of "progress." As Zora digs into the city's archives, she uncovers more than headlines?she exposes a mass grave, a web of corruption, and a sinister legacy of racial injustice, all while being stalked by whispers, shadows, and ghosts desperate for justice.
What begins as a haunting becomes a reckoning. With each flicker of light and every spectral touch, Zora must choose: run from the truth or become its voice. Because in this neighborhood, every house has a body. And the bodies are ready to speak.
Blending Southern Gothic horror, supernatural thriller, and historical fiction, A Body in Every House is a gut-wrenching, atmospheric tale about generational trauma, Black history, and the ghosts that still live among us. Perfect for fans of Beloved, The Haunting of Hill House, and Lovecraft Country.
