Pain, horror, fear-these are the things that bestselling novelist Lance Metzger's life have been comprised of. His childhood remains a riddled wasteland of abuse by a sadistic father and the abandonment of an apathetic mother. In turn, his only refuge became his writing. When Lance loses his ability to write and becomes haunted by a nightmare that he'd thought was buried, he is drawn inexplicably to a house on the shores of Lake Superior, where he finds his muse once again-but something is waiting for him when he arrives. Now he must unlock the devastating secrets that the house holds and uncover the mystery of his own broken past before he loses his sanity, and perhaps his soul.

Liked this very much. It’s a clever story which draws you in. You really feel for the main character during his younger years.

"Linage" is a medium paced, first-person, supernatural whodunnit, with suspense and gore similar to that which one would find in a well-written horror novel. The Novel is set in a "spooky"!old house which the protagonist purchased on a whim, as he believes that the "house" basically "spirit" writes for him, while he is going through a spell of writer's block due to an "irrational" fear by him that his deceased abusive father , would come back to life. The novel cleverly relies on a dual unfold , i.e., middle and end, so as to stretch the suspense. An extremely unique but very well written novel, especially around the psychological state of the proponent.
