Synopsis
Newly divorced Liam Northam buys an old Victorian home that he spots while driving at night because he felt "drawn to it." As soon as he moves in, he discovers that he is not the house's only occupant. His new housemate is a female ghost who believes he is the reincarnation of her husband who died sixty years ago. Liam can't tell his sisters or his best friend because he's afraid they'll think he's having a nervous breakdown. Again. Meanwhile, he gets caught up in the mystery of what happened to the original owners of the house, especially when he stumbles upon conflicting information that doesn't make sense. As he gets to know his ghostly roommate, he starts to believe that she may be right and he might be the reincarnation of her dead husband, after all. But what would that mean for their future? How could he possibly have a relationship with a woman he can't even see or hear?

His first day in the house went by without incident. The movers came in, did their thing without breaking anything, then his sisters and Mike, Leanne’s husband, came by to help him unpack what he needed to survive the next couple of days.

It was the most convenient place for them to hang out since Warren worked as a lecturer at the UCSD campus right in the middle of La Jolla and Liam, who worked in the Sorrento Valley area, was only ten minutes away. He and Warren convened at least once a week, mostly to just shoot the shit or catch up with each other.

“Wow… that is… what’s the word?”“Ugly? Yes, I’ve given it some thought, and I’m gonna go with ‘ugly.'”Liam took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. “I think it has character.”“Yeah… of a haunted house in a Shirley Jackson Novel,” his older sister Cat joked, eliciting a chuckle from Leanne, thei

Aiko woke up sprawled on her stomach, her cheek pressed against a cold, smooth surface. She pushed her palms against the concrete slab and opened her eyes, blinking as her eyes adjusted to the stark darkness.Not again. The stale air and the smell of mildew were enough to make her gag. Breathing through her mouth, she slowly sat up, wincing at the stiffness in her neck and shoulders.
