Spooky beautiful. I hoped it would never end.
When a tropical storm unearths human remains at Biloxi's infamous Marietta mansion, long-buried secrets resurface, igniting a series of ghostly encounters that threaten everyone connected to the ancient property. Desperate for answers, the mansion's owner calls on psychic and dream catcher Carrie Jo to unravel the mystery of the bones. But the deeper Carrie Jo digs, the more dangerous the supernatural activity becomes.
As Carrie Jo uncovers the tragic story of Mary Fairbanks, she must locate the rest of the woman's bones to bring her spirit peace. But this task proves perilous, especially when the Red Lady, Mississippi's terrifying version of a banshee, appears-an omen of impending death. Meanwhile, Carrie Jo's friend Lily is haunted by a phantom whistler, and Ashland discovers a ghostly relative with questionable motives.

With suspense, mystery, and plenty of ghostly encounters, Marietta is the perfect haunted house novel for fans of The Haunting of Hill House and southern gothic tales. Join Carrie Jo as she navigates the spectral past of Biloxi's most notorious mansion in this chilling duo of Footsteps of Marietta and The Bones of Marietta.
