There's No Place Like Home. A new, terrifying serial from author Ambrose Ibsen.

Kim and Julian Taylor are in the market for their first home, and a visit to the secluded Beacon estate finds them enamored. It's a peculiar home, rather large and in need of some renovations. The price is right however, and after a tour, they snap the house up without hesitation.

The man who sells them the house has one last detail to share before they sign on the dotted line. The previous owners of the home disappeared under mysterious circumstances nearly eight years ago and have recently been declared dead in absentia. Unperturbed by this fact, Kim and Julian set about making the home their own.

It quickly becomes clear that the two of them are not alone there, however.

In Absentia is the first novella in the Black Acres serial by Ambrose Ibsen. It is approximately 25,000 words and contains adult language, scenes of horror, and a cliffhanger ending. Reader discretion is heavily advised.

This writer confuses me: I have listened to a couple of his books which I found enjoyable and others that are complete duds; In Absentia among the latter. The characters are flat and listless, the story line rather dull and the author's use of some language somewhat dated for no apparent reason. It's as if the author has a split personality; one that is imaginative and talented and the other that is writing by rote. Oh, well... at least the narration is good. .

Blah.
