Good Bones

by Peter J Larrivee

Tommy Walker was a broken child from a broken home, but now as an adult, he has an opportunity to leave his mark on the world, and not spend his entire adulthood slaving away at a thankless job for mediocre pay like his father. He's discovered the perfect flip, an old abandoned manor ensconced by nature in the middle of a rural New England village. As an experienced construction worker, he is certain he can take this handyman's special and make it shine again! He's seen it all before, from rodent infestations, to termite problems, burst pipes, weather damage, hoarder junk and fire-hazard wiring. He knows every pitfall that comes from purchasing an as-is investment opportunity like this. 

 

But terrible things happened at the old Worthington Estate two centuries ago, and unfortunately for Tommy, they're not over yet. His dream house comes with a price beyond materials and labor, and Tommy is not prepared for the hate and rage that has been festering within the stone foundation for centuries. Because Old Man Worthington had inflicted a lot of suffering in his days, and now the restless dead demand their pound of flesh.
