This spring, from the author of twelve New York Times bestsellers and over twenty novels, comes the second highly anticipated book in her new Royal Street series, THE HOUSE ON PRYTANIA STREET by Karen White.

 

In the initial installment, The Shop on Royal Street, readers follow Nola Trenholm, the stepdaughter of Tradd Street’s beloved Melanie Trenholm, as she looks for a fresh start in New Orleans but must deal with ghosts from her past and present. In White’s latest volume, Nola feels ready to settle into her new home, but trouble makes its way to her in an unearthly form.

ABOUT THE HOUSE ON PRYTANI:

The story: Nola Trenholm may not be psychic herself, but she’s spent enough time around people who are to know when ghosts are present, and there are definitely a few lingering spirits in her recently purchased Creole Cottage in New Orleans. 

Something, or someone, is keeping them tethered to this world. And not all of them are benign.

But with the sudden return of Sunny Ryan, Beau Ryan’s long-lost sister, Nola has plenty to distract her from her ghostly housemates. 

 

Especially when the tempting—yet firmly unavailable—Beau, wanting justice on those he blames for Sunny’s kidnapping, asks Nola for a favor that threatens to stall her hard-won recovery and send her hurtling backwards. 

 

He asks her to welcome Michael Hebert back into her life, even though Michael is the reason for Nola’s bruised heart. 

 

Beau is convinced that Michael’s powerful family was behind Sunny’s disappearance and that Michael is the key to getting information that the police won’t be able to ignore. 

 

If only Nola is willing to risk everything for which she’s worked so hard.

 

Torn between helping Beau and protecting herself, Nola doesn’t realize until it’s almost too late why the ghosts are haunting her house—a startling revelation that will throw her and Beau together to fight a common enemy. 

 

Assuming Nola can get Beau to listen to what the spirits are trying to tell him because ignoring them could prove to be a fatal mistake…

I grew up being a voracious reader and it was a natural step to turn my interest to writing. 

I have published 28 award-winning and bestselling novels including my latest release, THE CHRISTMAS SPIRITS ON TRADD STREET, published by Penguin Random House in October, 2019. 

This is the 6th book in the Tradd Street series, to be followed by the final book, THE ATTIC ON QUEEN STREET, scheduled for publication on November 2, 2021. My next book, THE LAST NIGHT IN LONDON, will be published on April 20, 2021.

I write what others have termed "grit-lit"--southern women's fiction, as well as a contemporary paranormal mystery series (The House on Tradd Street is the 1st book in the series) set in Charleston, South Carolina.

I have also written three collaborations with bestselling authors Lauren Willig and Beatriz Williams. The most recent, ALL THE WAYS WE SAID GOODBYE, was published my William Morrow in January, 2012. We are hard at work on book #4, scheduled for publication in September, 2022.

I have two grown children (one of whom appears in several of my books under the alias of Meghan Black), and live near Atlanta, Georgia with my husband and two of the cutest Havanese dogs, Quincy and Sophie Belle. Readers may recognize Quincy as General Lee in the Tradd Street series.

Happy reading!
