Imagine Fargo written by Donna Tartt, unravelling the mind of a psychopath as nuanced as Patricia Highsmith´s Tom Ripley.

´Ghosts, murder, a terrifying psychotic who seems normal, and beautiful writing. Loved it´ Stephen King

´Can make you gasp in astonishment or break your heart with a single line´ Wall St Journal

´Superb. Think a more literary, and feminist, Gone Girl´ Vogue

This begins the morning Catherine Clare died.
The day her daughter spent in the house with her.
The evening her husband came home to find her.

This becomes the tale of their marriage,
and the ones around them.
A tale of bonds between families,
between lives living and lost
and of the lonely ones that share no bonds at all.
Who should be pitied.
Who must be feared.

Brundage´s brilliant new novel is as terrifyingly unsettling-and as beautiful-as cracking ice over a raging river. Part murder mystery, part ghost story, it´s also a profound look at how past guilt informs the present, how what we yearn for is not always what we get, and how it´s not only houses that can be haunted, but people as well. One of the most ambitious, original and gorgeously written novels that I´ve ever read-and been unable to forget. Caroline Leavitt
