I was invited to review this book by the publisher. This is the fourth installment in a series, but reading the others before this book is not necessary to understand the flow of the book. This book is set in 1937, and follows Hettie, a photojournalist who's understudy dies suspiciously. She goes to Hill House to get away from her sadness. Hill House is the family home of the Mandeville family, and Hettie is supposed to help catalog the antiques secured by the head of the household who has recently passed. As Hettie delves into her task, she also learns of a legend that a curse has struck the family due to a curse on one of the antiques. Stranger things then start to happen as Hettie gets deeper into her task.

This was a good atmospheric read, and I enjoyed the mystery surrounding the different artifacts and the hold on the house and family. It was a unique method to present the storyline. I especially loved the character of Hettie; she was a stronger, independent woman who was not afraid to pursue what she wanted, and I appreciated how the author depicted this character. This was an enjoyable read that I am interested to pursue the other books in the series.

Thank you to NetGalley and Storm Publishing for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
