The Girl of Grey House
It was an offer they couldn't refuse. For one of them, it was a choice that would carry them to the grave.
Desperate to start their life together, Grey House seems like the answer—a Victorian terraced house, impossibly low rent, and a big garden. But the housemates develop an unhealthy infatuation with Adam, and an unhealthier-still disdain for Jiselle. The low rent wasn't a bargain. It was a down payment for their sanity.
It's easy to enter Grey House. But leaving? Leaving demands something to be left behind.
When twelve-year-old Mickey finds a dead mouse in a tin of tomatoes, he hears a voice. His father's voice, who died over a year ago.
The voice of his father makes a strange request: bury the mouse in a jar of dirt, beneath the yew tree in the woods behind his house—the very tree where he scattered his father's ashes.
Mickey obeys. Something stirs. A sentinel of another world opens a door.
How far will he stretch his disbelief before the world he's built quietly swallows the earth beneath him?
