 I LOVE gothic horror, especially when the author gets the atmosphere just right. Noemí receives a letter from her cousin who is struggling with her new marriage/husband, and her mental health. Noemí travels to her cousins new home, a decaying mansion in the middle of nowhere. Upon arrival, it becomes clear not all is as it seems, and it seems as though the house itself may be alive!
