The Broken Hours by Jacqueline Baker
In 1936, horror writer H. P. Lovecraft was broke, living alone in a creaky old house, and deathly ill. He hires a new personal assistant, Arthor Crandle, ignorant of the writer and his work.

Soon Crandle is drawn into Lovecraft's unnerving world. A malevolent presence hovers on the landing. A light shines constantly from Lovecraft’s study, invisible from the street. In the night, come visions of a white-clad girl in the walled garden. A beautiful woman may not be what she seems. He knows his employer only through letters, signed “Ech-Pi”, and begins to suspect a dark secret at the heart of this world.
