The House With The Red Door

The wind is blowing rapidly and tosses away layers of soil, causing several little buried skeletons to appear. She is surrounded by these little hands that desperately try to reach out to her. She is drowning and cannot survive the heavy rain that continuously falls—and the heavy winds blowing away her rosebush garden. The wind howls even louder and these tiny hands continue reaching out to her; crying and crying—tormenting her mind... In this chilling thriller, a small family that dwelled for generations in an exclusive mansion will be transformed into nothing but shame and disgrace. And a doctrinal mother and an honest, hardworking nanny will turn what used to be a private home-sweet-home into a whorehouse and a destructive burial ground. The filth that is buried behind the walls of this once used-to-be mansion is as dark as midnight. And no one wants to go near... THE HOUSE WITH THE RED DOOR

"When Fern Douglas sees the news about Astrid Sullivan, a thirty-four-year-old missing woman from Maine, she is positive that she knows her. Fern's husband is sure it's because of Astrid's famous kidnapping - and equally famous return - twenty years ago, but Fern has no memory of that, even though it happened an hour outside her New Hampshire hometown, where she's returning for the week to help her father pack for a move. And when Astrid appears in Fern's recurring nightmare, one in which a girl reaches out to her, pleading, Fern fears that it's not a dream at all, but a memory. Back home in New Hampshire, Fern purchases a copy of Astrid's recently published memoir Behind the Red Door- which may have provoked her original kidnapper to abduct her again- and as Fern reads through its chapters, visits the people and places within it, she discovers more evidence that she has an unsettling connection to the missing woman. As her search becomes increasingly desperate, she hopes to remember her past so she can save Astrid in the present--before it's too late"--

Marie Carrington is running from a host of bad memories. Broke and desperate, she's hoping to find safety and sanctuary on Prince Edward Island, where she reluctantly agrees to help decorate a renovated bed-and-breakfast before it opens for prime tourist season. Seth Sloane didn't move three thousand miles to work on his uncle's B&B so he could babysit a woman with a taste for expensive antiques and a bewildering habit of jumping every time he brushes past her. He came to help restore the old Victorian--and to forget about the fiancée who broke his heart. The only thing Marie and Seth agree on is that getting the Red Door Inn ready to open in just two months will take everything they've got. Can these two wounded souls find hope, healing, and perhaps a bit of romance on this beautiful island? Step into the Red Door Inn, a lovely home away from home tucked along the north shore of fabled Prince Edward Island. It's a place where the wounded come to heal, the broken find forgiveness, and the lonely find a family. Won't you stay for the season?

Ana, rejected by her mother and sexually abused by her father, has carried the weight of her traumatic experiences long enough. At the age of 30, she walks across Spain on the 780-kilometer el Camino Trail searching for an end to her childhood pain. The overwhelming physical demands of the walk add to Ana's emotional suffering. Through an unlikely friendship with Richard, a gentle, older man in the early stages of Alzheimer's, Ana gains the support and companionship she desires. Richard teaches Ana to leave the past behind and live in the here and now -- as his illness has forced him to do. These two become improbable friends: one who cannot remember and one who cannot forget. Will Ana finally find the acceptance, friendship and love she requires, or are these to forever be beyond her reach?
