I found this book so fascinating, because this is a real mansion and – guess what – it is really HAUNTED. Check it out at Haunted Graham Mansion.
Imagine touring this place on Halloween.

Redemption: Legends of Graham Mansion, Book One
by Rosa Lee Jude & Mary Lin Brewer
Be careful what you wish for. When the breakup of her family forces Grae White’s mother to move her two children from their privileged city life to her hometown in the mountains of Virginia, all Grae wants is to be invisible in her new life. But that’s rather hard when everyone knows that her father is the latest headline-grabbing white collar criminal, the most popular boy in school wants to take Grae to the prom, and then there’s that she lives in a haunted mansion. It would make anyone want to get away. Grae soon learns that a simple wish can reveal an unknown ability. Something more than curiosity spirals Grae back in time to seek the truth in the tragedy of a 200 -year-old murder. Along the way, she learns about history, happiness, and heartache in the lives of those who have lived on the property, including her own family. Her first journey reveals secrets that will lead Grae to further explore the legends of Graham Mansion. REDEMPTION is Book One in the Legends of Graham Mansion series.
AMBITION, Book II and Deception, Book III

Love the 56! Interesting!
Here is my post
Thanks. I’m heading your way. ^_^
This sounds like a great series, especially since it takes place in a real mansion. I’d enjoy these stories.
Here’s the link to my Friday post: A GOOD HOME.
Thanks for stopping in Sandra. I won this book in a giveaway. It sounded good and it is. I will review soon. I’m on my way to check out your post for A Good Home.
Now that seems like a fascinating book! I love a good ghost story, but especially one based on real events or facts. If I’m ever in Virginia I will be sure to look it up!
Happy weekend!
Me too. I don’t think I have even passed through Virginia, no offense to you Virginians, but now I have a reason to detour in their direction if I am ever passing that way. Hope you are having a great weekend.
Ooh! A new series. I love hauntings! Have to check these out.
I love ghosts and hauntings too. I am loving this series.
Ooh, a cold case murder mystery!
YAY. You will love how she goes about solving it. Do you like time travel? ^_^
This looks scary! I don’t ever want to enter a haunted house….
Linking from Friday 56,

You had me at real haunted mansion!!!!! Now that’s exciting.
I love ghosts and haunted houses. ^_^
I’m so intrigued by this series–I love a haunted mansion story! I love that this is a real place too! (I’m too lazy to go into the other room and grab my kindle and tell you something from page 56. Next time!)
LOL. I know how you feel Taylor. Thanks for stopping in and I hope you had a great holiday.
