Overview
A haunting tale of treachery and secrets The House on Chestnut Circle recounts the plight of graphic designer Trent Cooper, who is unable to stop dwelling on the past even three years after the breakup of his marriage, and who can no longer bear being separated from his son. After completely pulling up stakes and relocating, Trent takes up residence in a fifty-year-old house by an abandoned grove of blighted trees. It's an aging neighborhood, full of mostly widows, widowers, and retired couples. Although the only sound likely to be heard there now is the sigh of the wind sweeping through the empty streets where gangs of children and block parties and potluck cookouts once reigned, the sturdy homes themselves have stood the test of time and still remain. But Trent's house has a troubled history, and it isn't long before he finds himself plunged into the mystery of what happened to a previous occupant twenty-five years earlier. The House on Chestnut Circle is a story of regret and enduring love, of a man haunted by past events and choices, and of his search for the truth-and for redemption.
