STONE MAD
The long-awaited new book from best-selling author D.M. Pulley!
Life fell apart for Mannie Wallace after her daughter Sally's best friend was abducted from the playground right under Mannie's nose. Six years later, Mannie is working as an engineer-turned-insurance investigator and barely holding the pieces of her family together. When an eccentric developer hires her to survey an infamously haunted Gilded Age mansion, Stone Mad Castle, it could be just the thing she needs to get her career and life back on track.
But once inside the abandoned structure, her dream job becomes a nightmare when a dead body turns up in the basement and she starts seeing ghosts. Probing deeper into the house, Mannie begins to suspect that Stone Mad's sinister past may be connected to the little girl she lost. Her daughter, now fourteen and obsessed with true crime, is convinced girls have been mysteriously disappearing near the haunted house at an alarming rate for more than a century.
Twist follows twist, like the hidden passageways that honeycomb the castle, as Mannie risks everything to unravel the mansion's secrets and uncover the fate of Sally's missing friend. In the end, Mannie must solve the mystery of Stone Mad once and for all…or become the next chapter in its haunted story.
