Publisher's Summary
For fans of The Haunting of Hill House comes a dark tale of a mansion haunted by a legacy of tragedy and a family trapped by lies.
Margot and Myron Spielman move to a new town, looking for a fresh start and an escape from the long shadow of their past. But soon after they buy Rawlingswood, a foreclosed mansion rumored to be haunted, they realize they’re in for more of the same…or worse.
After a renovation fraught with injuries and setbacks, the Spielmans move in to the century-old house, and their problems quickly escalate. The home’s beautiful facade begins to crumble around them when their teenage son uncovers disturbing details of Rawlingswood’s history - a history of murder, betrayal, and financial ruin. The Spielmans’ own shameful secrets and lies become harder to hide as someone or something inside the house watches their every move.
As tensions build between the family members, the home’s dark history threatens to repeat itself. Margot and Myron must confront their own ghosts and Rawlingswood’s buried past before the house becomes their undoing.
What the critics say
“A door creaks open. A footstep thumps on an empty floor above. A light turns on in a room left dark. In every silent room and black corner of No One’s Home, D. M. Pulley weaves threads of hypnotic suspense with the sad strands of a family lost to one another. With an elegantly restrained hand that stops mercifully shy of showcasing the unbearable, Pulley has created a contemporary intelligent thriller that can stand with the canon of the legendary Shirley Jackson.” (Amber Cowie, bestselling author of Rapid Falls)
“Disturbing and creepy. D.M. Pulley does a masterful job of introducing the reader to families who, at different points in time, are forced to experience life in the same menacing house. Reminds me of Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House, and I loved every second of it!” (Matthew Farrell, bestselling author of What Have You Done)

Ghost story with a heart
Just finished this grand, wonderful story of a mansion haunted by misery and murder, during Labour Day weekend. Author builds her tale with rich detail of grand mansion and the eras in which several families lived in the place. I found it a bit slow, predictable at start, but Ms. Pulley did her magic again. I had goosebumps at ending as characters went through hell of an ordeal to redeem themselves. Next to Dead Key, this is my second favourite of her novels. Great entry for fall listening on dark, rainy nights. The narrator did a superb rendering of different voices of characters, esp. sullen teen Hunter.

ok
I don't know how to rate this. It wasn't the worse of her books, and the idea was interesting, but the more I think about it, the more problems I had with it.
This author has a habit of starting off strong and then just... fading out. That was the case, here. It was ok, I was glad for the relatively happy ending, but it didn't feel complete. There were a lot of loose threads and dropped plots.
