The House That Turns Black in the Rain

Eleven-year-old Anne O'Hayden needed to uncover the long-hidden past of her family's home, Carrickduff. The grand cut-stone house already possessed a tragic past when Anne's grandfather rescued the bankrupt and abandoned estate, and all talk concerning the source of Carrickduff's fall was silenced by an obscure social code. Most believed that the farm's dark history had been buried with old Mr. O'Hayden's purchase, and so no one noticed when the stranger returned to Bray. But there was one tenant who was willing to talk. Anne's tranquil days begin to crumble, as the remaining inhabitants must decide if they are willing to risk their lives for The House That Turns Black In The Rain.
