A Good House For Children by Kate Collins

A gothic ghost story of a house that is just "wrong" and two families that lived there and lost while under its roof. The Reeve is a sprawling old house near the English cliffs. Gardens, a pond and countless rooms to explore, it should be the perfect place for children. Sadly, families soon find that it is not. Dead birds, noises, imaginary friends and images caught in the corner of your eye all designed to make any caregiver wary and discredit them at the same time. A debut with all the earmarks of a classic haunted house story with a nod to the isolation that single mother's caring for children single handedly often face. A spooky read sure to give you a quiet chill.    4 stars
