About the Book:

GOTHICTOWN is a novel about a NYC family who moves to the fictional Georgia town of Juliana (two hours outside of Atlanta) when they receive a too-good-to-be-true offer for a house following the pandemic. The family moves there, and things start going sideways. Haunted dreams, tension in the family, and a council of town elders who seem less benevolent as time passes. Eventually, they want to leave, but don't know how or even if that's possible. It's atmospheric, dark literary fiction with a suspense-driven plot in a small-town setting.
