A dark and atmospheric reimagining of Edgar Allan Poe’s “Annabel Lee” from USA Today bestselling author Adriane Leigh An artist's obsession. A lover's betrayal. A masterpiece haunted by the past... From the author of The Last Writer and The Guests comes a tragic twist on classic psychological horror romance. In the storm-lashed seaside town of Ravensreach on the island of Nantucket, secrets linger like the salt in the air—clinging, corrosive, impossible to escape. Calum Vey, a reclusive artist, returns to the eerie coastal cottage he once shared with Annabel Dupin, his dazzling muse and destructive love. Annabel is gone now, drowned under mysterious circumstances, but her presence refuses to fade. Her perfume lingers, her whispers echo, and her journal—a cryptic map of fear and longing—holds haunting clues about her final days. But Calum isn’t the only one ensnared by Annabel’s ghost. Jonathan Grey, Annabel’s childhood best friend, harbors his own dark obsession with the woman who played them both. As Calum and Jonathan’s uneasy friendship fractures, the line between memory and madness begins to blur. Was Annabel the victim of her own reckless passions, or was something far more sinister at play? The Haunting of Annabel is a gripping psychological horror romance that weaves dark obsession, betrayal, and the ghosts of love lost into a chilling narrative. Fans of Catriona Ward, The Haunting of Hill House, and The House Across the Lake will devour this tale of twisted love and tragedy by the sea.
