Owned by the same family for generations, Wrackton Hotel stands proudly overlooking the English Channel. But something is stirring in the many unoccupied rooms, and a dark secret threatens to burst out in search of revenge.
Drawn to the hotel by claims of ghostly inhabitants, Rebecca and Jonathan soon find themselves hunting for a spirit that seems to be trying to deliver a dark warning. The Wracktons themselves are a secretive and somewhat reclusive family who clearly hate the idea of revisiting the past, yet something in the hotel refuses to stay buried.
Meanwhile Alicia struggles to deal with Rose and decides to strike out on her own. Making friends with some of the locals, she quickly discovers that nothing at the hotel is quite what it seems. And when her two worlds come crashing together, will Alicia make the right choice – or is she doomed to repeat the mistakes of her family's past?

The Haunting of Wrackton Hotel completely pulled me in from the very first page. The setting was eerie and vivid—I could almost hear the creaking floors and feel the chill seeping through the walls of the old hotel. The story built up its tension perfectly, mixing ghostly suspense with just enough mystery to keep me guessing until the end.
The characters felt real, especially how they reacted to the strange happenings—it wasn’t over the top, just the right mix of fear and disbelief. I loved how the author slowly revealed the hotel’s dark history, tying it all together in such a haunting way.
If you love ghost stories that make you keep the lights on a little longer, this one’s a must-read. It’s spooky, well-written, and stays with you long after you finish.
I actually really liked this book. It has a good mix of character development, back story detail and scariness. It was one of the more well rounded complete enjoyable and stand alone stories in the series
