The Christmas Presence (The Mystery House Series)

Some houses remember. Some refuse to forgive.When a young family inherits a stunning mountain home outside Telluride, Colorado, they believe they’ve found paradise—six thousand square feet of glass and timber perched above a snow-draped valley.Instead, they inherit the nightmares.Every night, armed men drag them from their beds. Every night, they are forced into the snow at gunpoint and marched into the dark.Desperate for answers, they call Ellen, Sue, and Tanya.What begins as a haunting rooted in restless dreams soon reveals a deeper unrest—one born during Colorado’s violent labor wars at the turn of the twentieth century. A mine manager shot dead. A union leader accused of murder. A town divided by loyalty, fear, and bloodshed. And beneath the house’s modern foundation lies the original cellar—along with the buried records of a conflict that was never truly resolved.As the nightmares grow more vivid and the mountain itself seems to tremble with memory, Ellen and her friends must determine what really happened in 1901—and whether justice was ever served.Because someone is still fighting that war.And this time, the living are caught in the crossfire.The books in this series can be read in any order.
