Publisher's summary

Darkness never dies....

Ravencrest Manor has always been part of the family. The ancestral home of the Mannings, Ravencrest’s walls have been witness to generations of unimaginable scandal, horror, and depravity. Imported stone by stone from England to Northern California in the early 1800s, the manor now houses widower Eric Manning, his children, and his staff. Ravencrest stands alone, holding its memories and ghosts close to its dark heart, casting long, black shadows across its grand lawns, through the surrounding forests, and over the picturesque town of Devilswood, below.

Dare to cross the threshold....

Ravencrest Manor is the most beautiful thing new governess Belinda Moorland has ever seen, but as she learns more about its tangled past of romance and terror, she realizes that beauty has a dark side. Ravencrest is built on secrets, and its inhabitants seem to be keeping plenty of their own - from the handsome English butler Grant Phister, to the power-mad administrator Mrs. Heller, to Eric Manning himself, who watches her with dark, fathomless eyes. But Belinda soon realizes that the living who dwell in Ravencrest have nothing on the other inhabitants - the ones who walk the darkened halls by night...the ones who enter her dreams...the ones who are watching...and waiting....

Welcome to Ravencrest....

Who is the man digging in the garden beyond Belinda’s bedroom window? Who - or what - is watching her from the vents? From ghostly screams and the clutching bony fingers of death in the indoor pool, to the trio of gliding nuns in the east wing who come at Belinda with black blazing eyes, to the beckoning little girl in the red dress who died more than two centuries ago, Belinda is thrust into a world of waking nightmares where there is no distinction between the living and the dead, and there are no limits to the horrors that await.

Sick... could not finish

I was looking for a good supernatural story. A bit of romance thrown in would have been okay too. But this book turned me off. I would label it as disturbing sick porn. There is no reason a story should have such ugly graphic sex scenes. They weren't sexual... but just sick.

Warning.... If you have a teen who has yet to see a doctor for her first female exam, do not let her read or listen to this book!

I am no prude, but this was so disturbing I could not finish listening to it and not be obtaining any more of this series.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review & has not affected my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

It captures the readers attention!

Such a good book. I love any story that spans generations and this one did not disappoint. Lovers still together even after death, such a ride through time!
I can't wait for the next installment!
The narrator did a decent job. I felt that she brought Belinda to life very well.

I wonder what's in store for the Manning family in book 2??

Totally Enjoyed This

It had my attention the entire way through. Not for kids in my opinion. This is a really good book and I think adults should read/listen to this book. I fell right into the story and could picture myself being in the action. Thanks to the authors and the voice actor for this wonderful experience.

The Ghosts of Ravencrest review

Having read the kindle version of this a couple of years ago, I was interested in how the audiobook would be. It wasn't a mistake in doing so, it had great narration added to an already fantastic book. Now look forward to part two.

Mystery, Horror, Romance Novel Book 1

This is a good story with a ongoing Mystery with parts that show Horror, but Romance as well. Interesting combination that makes listening to this Audible book I purchased well worth the $$s. Narrator does a OK job, a different Narrator would be better for this Series in my opinion. Looking forward to Book #2 of this Series.
