Stephen King-like…At once a whodunit, a dark love story and a saga of three dysfunctional families The House continually and compellingly wrong-foots the reader, from its faux-gothic opening to its deftly worked ending * Sunday Times *
A masterpiece of duplicity, a psychological thriller of the highest order…fans of he said/she said suspense will love this tense and gripping story. Highly recommended! – Karen Dionne, author THE MARSH KING’S DAUGHTER
