The House on Foster Hill
by Jaime Jo Wright is a story about healing, facing the past and moving
forward. It opens in Oakwood, Wisconsin in 1906 Ivy, the daughter of the local
doctor and sometimes medical examiner, and her father are called to the scene
where a young woman’s body has been found. Fast forward to present day Oakwood,
as Kaine Prescott is arriving to start her new life after leaving a horrifying
situation back home in San Diego, California. She has purchased the Foster Hill
House in the hopes of restoring it and finding a new life in Wisconsin. Unfortunately,
she learns that her troubles from home have seemed to follow her to Oakwood.
The story is told from Ivy in the past and Kaine in the present, as the mystery
of the young girl’s death and the events surrounding Kaine seem to be
connected. Will Kaine find the truth and put the mystery of the house on Foster
Hill to rest?
I enjoyed The House on
Foster Hill. It was a fast read as it holds your attention and you eagerly
read chapter after chapter for clues. It is a wonderful story with lots of
twists and turns of a great mystery. I enjoyed all the characters as they had
their part in the story which seems to fit. Even when the individual behind the
strange happens around Kaine is revealed it is not the person you thought of and
always a good sign of a great mystery. I would like to reread the story and see
if the author gave any subtle clues to his or her identity that I didn’t pick
up before. I highly recommend The House
on Foster Hill.
