The House on Chestnut Circle
“Fans of a suspenseful whodunit with elements of the supernatural will take to this book with enthusiasm.” — US Review of Books
After pulling up stakes and relocating to be near his son, Trent Cooper takes up residence in a fifty-year-old house by an abandoned grove of blighted trees. It’s an aging neighborhood, full of mostly widows, widowers, and retired couples. Although the only sound likely to be heard there now is the sigh of the wind sweeping through the empty streets where gangs of children and block parties and potluck cookouts once reigned, the sturdy homes themselves have stood the test of time and still remain. But Trent's house has a tragic past, and it isn't long before he finds himself plunged into the mystery of what happened to a previous occupant twenty-five years before.
The House on Chestnut Circle is a story of regret and enduring love, of a man haunted by past events and choices, and of his search for the truth—and for redemption.
