Waiting at the Well

You can leave the house. You can cross state lines. But you can't outrun the thing that wore your sister's face. Stranded in Branch, West Virginia, during a brutal storm, Emily takes a temporary job at the crumbling Rosehill Motel—a roadside relic with more ghosts than guests. Locals whisper about dark spirits, a disturbing basement, and room 132, where furniture randomly tears apart, and messages appear on the walls. When a Covenant Church conference rolls into town and a prominent church leader turns up murdered, the past Emily is running from collides with the motel's restless spirits. Anonymous texts show disturbing photos of her older sister in a basement surrounded by women in cape dresses and denim jumpers. A small-town cop wants answers, and someone keeps reminding her: Don't think you're free. As Emily asks questions about the ministries once run by her adoptive father, she uncovers chilling links between the cult, the conference, and the horror unfolding in Branch. With Kade fighting his own demons and the motel's ghosts growing more restless, Emily must decide whether to run again . . . or finally turn and face what's been following her since Caster. A haunted motel. Small-town murder. Religious trauma. Slow-burn romance. Waiting at the Well is a dark, atmospheric paranormal suspense novel perfect for fans of haunted-house horror, cult fiction, and emotionally complex romance.
