Richard has a secret... A traumatic event in his past has left him with some rather odd quirks - and his dreams sometimes compete with reality. Zelda has a secret, too... Her shallow nature, and her fun-loving attitude makes her appreciate the finer things in life - but also keeps their young marriage on shaky grounds. So, Richard's new house has a secret - one that will allow him to keep watch over his guests, and his beloved Zelda. His attempts to seclude her are all designed to keep her for himself - and only himself. But Richard will ultimately get more than even he bargained for.It's 1929 and the roaring twenties are in full bloom. A booming economy is percolating and women are enjoying new freedoms never before imagined. Wall Street is providing ample opportunity for a savvy investor - and Richard has devised a scheme to finance a home he can not afford. But when Wall Street starts to falter, and the Markets start their historical crash, Richard's plans start to crumble with it, until he's finally facing the real possibility of complete financial ruin. That's when he returns to his beautiful new home to find even more devastating news... and his whole world turns upside down.There's a reason this house is foreboding... This is the story that tells it all. This is the story that launches the terrifying Dream House Series.This breakout debut from the master storyteller is a psychological thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat from the first word to the last. It's a dark and twisted tale of one man's obsession - and of his descent into depravity in pursuit of that obsession. The tension grows and the characters flourish with the unfolding of each new scene - ultimately culminating in a breathtaking climax that's nothing short of remarkable! Relive the stock market crash that started the great depression, from this house's and it's deranged owner's perspective and you'll see why it's been called a Nightmare in the Making.
