Chloe Mora is an 18-year-old country girl who believes she's destined to live a life of mediocrity. But all that changes when her wealthy aunt whisks her off to the big city for a thrilling adventure. In Cambridge, she falls head over heels for the charming MIT student, Michael Bath, who invites her to his ancestral home, the oldest and arguably the creepiest house in Salem - Pickering Place. As a fan of all things paranormal, Chloe can't resist letting her wild imagination run free with spine-tingling questions. What dark secrets does Pickering Place hold? What really happened to Mrs. Bath? Is the Bath family hiding a sinister truth?

Join Chloe on this thrilling, contemporary take on Jane Austen's gothic parody, Northanger Abbey.

Praise for this book

"What a great twist on the Jane Austen formula for fiction! This modern version of Austen's formula is simply lovely. It is quirky, diverse, and the nods to Austen are wonderfully recognizable and fun." (Amazon Review)

"Chloe takes her first journey away from home with her Tia to the college campus of MIT. She experiences many firsts on her trip, her first plane ride, her first shopping trip, her first frat party, her first flirtation and her first experience with unpleasant people.

I loved how easy it was to read from one page to the next! I hope there is book 2!" (Amazon Review)

"Pickering Place is a fun read for any readers that enjoy eminently relatable characters. Chloe's penchant for daydreams that border on ridiculous is giggle worthy, as are her wilder imaginings once she leaves her sheltered small-town life." (Amazon Review)
