Narrator Lee Harden toils as a research assistant for an inner-city drug center in Boston. Unofficially, she counsels recovering black addict Trina and helps her own grandmother (with whom she lives) ready her historic house for acceptance into a national park comprising Underground Railroad stations. Lee complains of unnerving nightmares about the house's root cellar and even sleepwalks while the house undergoes renovations. Her narrative shares space with journal entries an ancestor made in 1858, detailing her unacceptable relationship with an escaped slave. Increasingly eerie connections with the past, a missing bracelet, and murder make this a recommended choice for readers of psychological suspense. FICTION::General Fiction
