Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Ghost Story—and the master of American horror—tells the terrifying story of a woman who, in her desperation to flee the past, encounters an inexplicable aura of evil.
Julia’s first purchase upon leaving her husband is a large, old-fashioned house in Kensington, where she plans to live by herself, well away from her soon-to-be-ex and the home where their young daughter died. She feels a peculiar affinity for the house right away, a feeling that deepens with each glimpse of a mysterious little girl—blond, like her daughter—in the neighborhood, and even in her dreams
But the little girl and the big house have an inexplicable aura of evil. And Julia quickly discovers that escaping her past is not as simple as turning a key.

“Julia is an excellently crafted gothic psychological horror story about a grieving woman whose sanity is slowly chipped away by conniving, secretive relatives, her own repressed memories, as well as a possible ghost that is out for revenge. Might be my new favorite Straub.”
