New Mexico, 1950. Emilia Cruz is a reporter at the Albuquerque Journal, sharp and ambitious, though her career is limited by the expectations placed on women of the time. She lives alone in her family's house on Silver Avenue, a place she remains in not by choice, but by necessity. Emilia has learned how to survive the house. She has learned the rules.
When she begins seeing Air Force Colonel Thomas Hamilton, she knows what will happen if she brings him too close. She has lived through it before. The house does not tolerate intimacy. Men who stay too long do not leave unchanged, and some do not leave at all.
As the violence returns, Emilia faces a choice she has been avoiding for years. She can continue living as the house demands or abandon everything it has ever allowed her to keep.
The Keeping of Emilia Cruz is a supernatural novel about inheritance, control, and the terrible price of being loved by something that believes it owns you.
