Jealousy, betrayal, murder and a hunger for vengeance that spans the
centuries…
History student Alex Palmer is thrilled when his girlfriend, Claire Ryan,
buys an apartment in Belle Vue Manor, formerly a Victorian lunatic
asylum.
But as Alex begins to discover the dark truth about the asylum’s past,
he, Claire, and their friend Marianne find themselves on a nightmarish
journey. Each will face the deadly consequences of the evil that began
with the construction of the first Belle Vue Manor by an aristocratic
French émigré in 1789, as well as the cruelty and satanic practices that
continued when it became an asylum for the insane.
As the two strands—past and present—unfold, Alex uncovers a
supernatural mystery where revenge is paramount and innocence
irrelevant—without being aware of the price he, and those around him,
will pay.
“an epic horror thriller” that is “filled with surprising, satisfyingly creepy twists’ and is ‘highly recommended for audiences who eschew the usual formula production in favor of a work that is more multifaceted and satisfying on emotional, historical, and philosophical levels alike.”
-Midwest Book Review-
