On The Cliffs Of Foxglove Manor
by Jaime Jo Wright
| -From Goodreads- 1885. Adria Fontaine has been sent to recover goods her father pirated on the Great Lakes during the war. But when she arrives at Foxglove Manor--a stone house on a cliff overlooking Lake Superior--Adria senses wickedness hovering over the property. The mistress of Foxglove is an eccentric and seemingly cruel old woman who has filled her house with dangerous secrets, ones that may cost Adria her life. Present day. Kailey Gibson is a new nurse's aide at a senior home in a renovated old stone manor. Kidnapped as a child, she has nothing but locked-up memories of secrets and death, overshadowed by the chilling promise from her abductors that they would return. When the residents of Foxglove start sharing stories of whispers in the night, hidden treasure, and a love willing to kill, it becomes clear this home is far from a haven. She'll have to risk it all to banish the past's demons, including her own. ISBN-13: 9780764233906 One of this summer's MUST reads! Oh. My. Goodness. I think I'm going to have to sleep with my light on for at least a week! On The Cliffs Of Foxglove Manor was the eeriest, the creepiest, book that I've read in months! Jaime Jo Wright is a master of her craft and it shows in every one of her novels, but she is definitely at the top of her game with this one. The Gothic overtones are utter perfection! |  This Book received a 5 Bark rating.

Up until now my favorite Jaime Jo Wright book was The Curse Of Misty Wayfair but I think On The Cliffs Of Foxglove Manor is in the running to be tie for favorite status. It's just THAT good! The blend of historical and contemporary was done to perfection. Each layer and chapter of the story building on the one prior, and each one necessary for the dual timeline to come together seamlessly.
If you are looking for a story with deeply flawed characters doing the best they can with what they have, this is the book for you. These characters are some of the most real that I've read in awhile, their fears and struggles may be difficult and even a little taboo in most Christian fiction but they are about as authentic as they come.
On The Cliffs Of Foxglove Manor was so deliciously dark and spooky that I stayed up nearly all night to finish it. Some friendly advice, don't turn off the lights after reading this one. Jaime Jo Wright had me jumping at every suspicious sound, and trust me, old houses like mine have a lot of suspicious noises at 3 am. I cannot recommend this book highly enough, it's one you won't want to miss!
