About
the book:
Ever since Zylla Berry first saw the dilapidated mansion in
Boston’s Back Bay, she’d become enchanted. When she walks by one day to find
that someone is renovating the old beauty, she walks through its open door and
meets Jabe Thayer.
Determined to restore The Charlesgate to its former splendor, Jabe
is thrilled to meet Zylla, who shares his passion for the building and knows
its history. As they get to know each other, they find that their love for The
Charlesgate is not a coincidence and as supernatural forces intensify, they
begin to uncover a sinister secret that will threaten their future.
From the piratical seas of the seventeenth century, to Boston’s
Gilded Age to the present, The Charlesgate is a haunting novel of ancestry,
fate, and the unfailing power of love.
ExcerptZylla trotted up the steps into the cool darkness of the alcove and lovingly gazed at the gold-green ceramic tiled walls. Along the ceiling, the glossy tiles sported figures of knights, cherubs, flowers and heraldic crests. She ignored the chunks where tile was missing, just as she overlooked the broken lantern that hung from the ceiling on a rusted chain.Instead, she turned to the iron-barred glass double doors, barely glancing at the yellow and black “No Trespassing” sign taped across them, or the thick chain and padlock wrapped around the door handles.As always, Zylla wrapped her fingers around one grubby brass handle, closed her eyes, and pulled. And as always the padlock didn’t magically fall off to allow her entry into the Charlesgate’s realm.

I enjoyed the excerpt; thank you for the chance to win :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lisa!
DeleteThis looks really interesting. I love gothics and am glad to see a resurgence of this genre.
ReplyDeleteHi Maggie! Me too. I can't decide if Charlegate is a true gothic. It's definitely inspired by the old-fashioned tales of yore but it has a contemporary edge (if the 1990s are contemporary!). Dina
DeleteI'm looking forward to seeing how this book plays out. It sounds great :)
