House of the Lost Girls

Flocksdale has an evil, ugly past--and history has a way of repeating itself . . . Not only did her father abandon her five years ago, now Seventeen-year-old Marianna Bertagnoli is being uprooted and forced to move with her mother and new stepdad to a creepy Victorian house they inherited in the even creepier town of Flocksdale. Marianna notices some strange qualities about her new home, and soon realizes she's living in none other than the infamous House of Horrors. The very house where the demented Garrett family ran a drug ring, leading to the kidnappings and murders of forty young girls. Within a week of moving in, Marianna's mother disappears, one of her small group of new friends is found murdered, and she's attacked by a man wearing a hideous clown mask. As she searches for answers, Marianna wonders if the malevolence still lingers, somehow alive . . . and how her stepdad came to own the House of Horrors. Caught up in twisted family ties and surrounded by deceit, Marianna is targeted by a new generation of evil. Will Marianna survive long enough to bring the evil to light? Or will she be trapped in the house of the lost girls forever?
