<p><b>'Intense, original, and wonderfully unpredictable . . . <i>Model Home</i> is a story of a haunted house and haunted people; profound family secrets lie at the heart of this book as well as, surprisingly, blessedly, meaningful touches of love and hope. Rivers Solomon is an astonishingly talented writer.'</b> Victor LaValle<i>, </i>author of <i>Lone Women </i><br><br><b>'A startling reimagination of the haunted-house genre. The twists and turns are carefully drawn, with the tension mounting toward a shocking end . . . With this exhilarating and unforgettable work, Solomon proves to be a formidable writer.'</b> <i>Kirkus</i><br><br><b>'Moving. Gnawing. Alive. Complete with claws and a heart and lungs in it . . . its genius does not, even for the sake of mercy, relent.'</b> Eloghosa Osunde, author of <i>Vagabonds!</i><br><br><i>----------</i><br><br>Two bodies lie in the garden of a sprawling property in Oak Creek Estate, a wealthy gated community in Dallas, Texas.<br><br>The bodies belong to the parents of Ezri, Eve and Emmanuel, who have long since abandoned the childhood home in which their parents remained all these years.
