It is the summer of 1921, and a group of Bolsheviks has taken over Irina and Lili Goliteva’s ancestral home in Moscow, a stately mansion falling into disrepair. The remaining members of their family are ordered to move into the cramped attic while the officials take over an entire wing of grand rooms downstairs. The sisters understand it is the way of things and know they must forget their noble upbringing to survive in this new Soviet Russia. But the house begins to whisper of a traumatic past not as dead as they thought.

Eager to escape it and their unwelcome new landlords, Irina and Lili find jobs with the recently arrived American Relief Administration, an organization meant to ease the postrevolutionary famine in Russia. For the sisters, the ARA provides much-needed food and employment as well as a chance for sensible Irina to help those less fortunate and for artistic Lili to express herself for a good cause. It might just lead them to love, too.

But at home, the spirits of their deceased family awaken, desperate to impart what really happened to them during the Revolution. Soon one of the officials living in the house is found dead. Was his death caused by something supernatural or by someone all too human? And are Irina, Lili, and their family next? Only unearthing the frightening secrets of Moscow House will reveal all. But this means the sisters must dig deep into a past no one in Russia except the dead is allowed to remember.
