A fresh start was supposed to be simple.
When Brittany and Tim Mercer move their five children into a beautiful historic home in Hermann, Missouri, they believe they've found the perfect place to begin their next chapter. The house is old, full of character, and surprisingly affordable.
Then Tim disappears.
His vehicle is found abandoned outside town. His phone is still inside. And a document bearing their new home's address is left behind.
As Brittany searches for answers, she discovers that Tim's disappearance may be connected to something buried in the house's past. More than twenty years earlier, Claire Bennett vanished without a trace from the same property. Her husband spent the rest of his life insisting she hadn't simply walked away.
Behind a painted-shut door, the Mercer family discovers what he left behind: photographs, names, old records, and evidence of secrets someone has spent decades trying to keep hidden.
Soon, Brittany realizes her family didn't find the Bennett house by accident.
Someone wanted them there.
And whoever took Tim has been watching them far longer than she ever imagined.
Set against the historic streets and hills of Hermann, Missouri, The Bennett House is a suspenseful mystery about a family pulled into a decades-old web of disappearances, hidden identities, buried evidence, and dangerous secrets.
Because every house has a past.
This one was waiting for them to find it.
