Description
Mexican Gothic meets Rebecca in this debut supernatural suspense novel, set in the aftermath of the Mexican War of Independence, about a remote house, a sinister haunting, and the woman pulled into their clutches...
During the overthrow of the Mexican government, Beatriz’s father was executed and her home destroyed. When handsome Don Rodolfo Solórzano proposes, Beatriz ignores the rumors surrounding his first wife’s sudden demise, choosing instead to seize the security that his estate in the countryside provides. She will have her own home again, no matter the cost.
But Hacienda San Isidro is not the sanctuary she imagined.
When Rodolfo returns to work in the capital, visions and voices invade Beatriz’s sleep. The weight of invisible eyes follows her every move. Rodolfo’s sister, Juana, scoffs at Beatriz’s fears—but why does she refuse to enter the house at night? Why does the cook burn copal incense at the edge of the kitchen and mark the doorway with strange symbols? What really happened to the first Doña Solórzano?
Beatriz only knows two things for certain: Something is wrong with the hacienda. And no one there will save her.
Desperate for help, she clings to the young priest, Padre Andrés, as an ally. No ordinary priest, Andrés will have to rely on his skills as a witch to fight off the malevolent presence haunting the hacienda and protect the woman for whom he feels a powerful, forbidden attraction. But even he might not be enough to battle the darkness.
Far from a refuge, San Isidro may be Beatriz’s doom.

Histoire
Iris Hollow and her two older sisters are unquestionably strange. Ever since they disappeared on a suburban street in Scotland as children only to return a month a later with no memory of what happened to them, odd, eerie occurrences seem to follow in their wake. And they're changing. First, their dark hair turned white. Then, their blue eyes slowly turned black. They have insatiable appetites yet never gain weight. People find them disturbingly intoxicating, unbearably beautiful, and inexplicably dangerous.

Histoire
Max Maurey should be on top of the world. He's a famous horror director. Actors love him. Hollywood needs him. He's making money hand over fist. But it's the 80s, and he's directing cheap slashers for audiences who only crave more blood, not real art. Not real horror. And Max's slimy producer refuses to fund any of his new ideas. But when Max discovers an old camera that filmed a very real Hollywood horror, he knows that he has to use this camera for his next movie. The only problem is that it came with a cryptic warning and sometimes wails.

Each spring, Ithaca condemns twelve maidens to the noose. This is the price vengeful Poseidon demands for the lives of Queen Penelope’s twelve maids, hanged and cast into the depths centuries ago. But when that fate comes for Leto, death is not what she thought it would be. Instead, she wakes on a mysterious island and meets a girl with green eyes and the power to command the sea. A girl named Melantho, who says one more death can stop a thousand.

In the lands of Bethel, where the Prophet's word is law, Immanuelle Moore's very existence is blasphemy. Her mother's union with an outsider of a different race cast her once-proud family into disgrace, so Immanuelle does her best to worship the Father, follow Holy Protocol, and lead a life of submission, devotion, and absolute conformity, like all the other women in the settlement. But a mishap lures her into the forbidden Darkwood surrounding Bethel, where the first prophet once chased and killed four powerful witches.

All he can do is play along with his own evil plan in hopes of getting his memories back before he gets himself killed. But as he realizes that nothing—from the incredibly tasteless cloak adorned with flames to the aforementioned princess—is quite what it seems, Gav must face up to all the things the Dread Lord Gavrax has done. And he'll have to answer the hardest question of all—who does he want to be?

Ce que les critiques en disent
“A thing of uncanny, chilling beauty. Hauntings, exorcisms, incantations, forbidden love — The Hacienda transports one to a world where love triumphs over demons.”
—The New York Times
“[A] gothic tale of doomed love and vengeful spirits."
—The Washington Post
"Cañas clearly knows the genre, alternately deploying and subverting haunted house tropes. The result is a brilliant contribution to the new wave of postcolonial Gothics. Readers won’t want to miss this."
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Gripping Gothic story
The story was a Gothic style thriller beautifully executed by the narrators. I was drawn in to another world that gripped me and wouldn't let go until the very end. Even after I was done listening, my mind drifted back over the story. This is one that I will enjoy listening to many times.

A hauntingly beautiful story
I love haunted houses. Houses that are characters in their own right, like the hacienda San Isidro.
The story reminded me a lot of Rebecca, but leaning more into the haunting and ghost Rebecca lacked. The gothic atmosphere, the Mexican backstory, and author’s style made it a book I would definitely recommend in spooky, gloomy weather. The audiobook was extraordinary, very well narrated.

A Spectacular Ghost Story
An excellent blend of historical settings, haunted houses, angry spirits, and forbidden romance, THE HACIENDA is one of my favourite spooky books of the year.
Agreeing to marry a man she doesn’t love to protect her future, Beatriz moves into a beautiful hacienda with a dark past. Once strange and alarming events start occurring, she finds herself working with a young priest names Andreas whose complicated past opens her to a whole new realm of possibility and danger.
Beatriz is a great lead character with grace, resolve, and composure. She is the exact sort of character I enjoy following in these stories and proved to be stronger than even she believed. Andreas is a priest with a dark secret, one that I did not expect and immediately enthralled me to him. The relationship he has with Beatriz is sweeping and delightfully slow burn, and one I wanted to see more of.
The book is filled with creepy occurrences and danger. The spirit is clearly an angry one and manifested in terrifying ways as Beatriz and Andreas tried to discover the truth behind the haunting. Add in fantastic writing and an immersive experience perfect for anyone who loves historical haunted house stories.

I dare you to try it as an Audiobook. At Night.
Loved the voice of the female narrator who made the rising dread and fear of the main character, Beatrice, come alive! This book is frightening and scary with its supernatural story of a vengeful ghost/murder mystery. It also incorporates Mexican history and class relations too.
Definitely my fav listen of this year.
