*Amazon Blurb*

It's another bright, sunny day in Venture, Illinois, the sort of place where dreams come true and families can get a fresh start. Cecelia Holmes deserves it after the home invasion that shattered her previous life. Now everything seems perfect - her high-security SmartHome, her doting husband, her sweet daughter.
Until she begins to feel spied on. Her husband doesn't believe her. Her neighbors ignore her. So when she discovers a shocking secret about the prior occupant of their house, she feels that she has no one to turn to. And now Cecelia must face her fears alone...

*My Review* 
 
This book was definitely different. It reminded me of a sci-fi book I had read with all the smart home features.
The new house that Cecelia and her family move into is supposed to make her feel safe and not have to worry about anything. It knows exactly how she likes her coffee, the temperature of her bath water and there is even a maid that takes care of everything. So why doesn't Cecelia feel safe? When the home starts making mistakes it is assumed to just be a malfunction, but when it keeps happening and starts putting your family in danger....is it really just a malfunction or something more?

    1. It definitely wasn't that great, but I feel it did have a lot of potential.
