The story is a rather standard mystery with science fiction dressing. The protagonist, Allison Stephens, is hired as an administrator for an old estate in California, the titular house. As he investigates it, and the owner, he gets deeper into the mysteries of the cult that surrounds the house, the immortality of certain figures, the life-like masks that some are able to wear to appear as other people, a space ship, a mind-reader. He handles learning of these supernatural phenomena with the coolness of a detective in 40�s noir films. He also gets the amorous woman.
