THE BELL TOLLS AT TRAEGER HALL
by Jaime Jo Wright
October 20 - November 14, 2025 Virtual Book Tour
Book Synopsis:
An abandoned estate encased in stagnant darkness . . .
A haunting legacy intent on silencing all within reach . . .
In 1890, the ominous tolling of the bell announces that death has come to Traeger Hall, leaving orphaned Waverly Pembrooke to piece together the puzzle behind her uncle's and aunt's murders. Bound by the terms of her uncle's eccentric will, Waverly finds herself alone in a manor shrouded by death and questioning the reasons for her uncle's paranoia. A madness hovers over Traeger Hall, and Waverly--as well as the people of nearby Newton Creek--are ill-prepared for the woe that has descended.
In present day Newton Creek, whispers of a family curse still cling to the century-old, abandoned property of Traeger Hall. When Jennie Phillips takes possession of the estate after her mother's passing, she is intent on solving the mystery of the Traeger murders. Yet a modern cold case suggests that untimely deaths and mysterious occurrences still plague the property. And as thorny truths surface, Jennie realizes the dark legacy threatens not only the town and the Traeger descendants . . . but also, chillingly, Jennie herself.

My Review
Jaime Jo Wright has written another book that will haunt your thoughts and is very creepy at times. The Bell Tolls at Traeger Hall was a terrifying experience, and I somehow found myself reading it at night and wished I hadn't.
This sometimes dark, dual-timeline novel will leave you guessing throughout. The two main characters of Waverly in 1890 and Jennie in the present day were both so compelling as they dealt with the hidden secrets found at Traegar Hall and the murders that had taken place there. Jaime Jo Wright has a way of creating a seamless, immersive, and impactful reading experience. She knows how to "Paint a Picture" by engaging all of your senses by putting you right there in the thick of things. It makes a rich, immersive world for readers. One of my favorite quotes from the book shows Wright's unique style,
“I have found that the unlikely often becomes the likely, while the likely often never sees the light of day.”
Without giving anything away, please note that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. By the end, you will be amazed at the surprising twists you were taken through, but what a delightful reading experience.
