The Empty Room
by Sarah Clemens
Rain soaked and dreary, it was a 1901 abandoned Victorian that newlyweds Dean and Elizabeth Montgomery hoped would fulfill their dreams of a new start in life, even if the town of Eastbrook, Maine was nestled under a constant blanket of fog.
The first neighbor the couple meets dashes those hopes when he raises a bizarre question: what happened to the last person who lived in their house? A cryptic question, but nothing to worry about. At least not until the couple looked under the floorboards inside the house.
Under mounting pressure from the residents of Eastbrook to stop questioning the past, Dean and Elizabeth are driven deeper into the history of the house, the town, and their neighbors. When the couple discovers what happened in Eastbrook, keeping the secret could save their lives, but uncovering the truth might be worth the risk.
What happened inside The Empty Room is a mystery until the last page. A gripping psychological suspense, the story takes readers on a cat-and-mouse game where some secrets are better off hidden.

The Great Gatsby
I remember first reading The Great Gatsby in high school as do many, many people my age. Back then, it was a book that was forced on high school students as an assignment.
What the Reviewer’s Say
-Dandelions Inspired
“Even more impressive than the novel itself, is this is Sarah Clemens’ debut novel! The ability to weave a suspenseful, mysterious story in this way with so many surprises is outstanding, but especially from a new author. I so look forward to reading more from her in the future.”
