Description
"Impossible to resist, impossible to predict, impossible to put down...this is an author at the top of her game." --Erin Kelly, author of Watch Her Fall The author of the "masterfully plotted, compulsive page-turner" (The Guardian) Our House takes you on a haunting and nail-biting journey of tragedy and revenge.The Heights is a tall, slender apartment building among warehouses in London. Its roof terrace is so discreet, you wouldn't know it existed if you weren't standing at the window of the flat directly opposite. But you are. And that's when you see a man up there--a man you'd recognize anywhere. He may be older now, but it's definitely him. But that can't be because he's been dead for over two years. You know this for a fact. Because you're the one who killed him. With Louise Candlish's signature dark and twisty prose, The Heights shows "the ferocity of maternal love" (Hannah Beckerman, author of If Only I Could Tell You). "This cleverly constructed novel will keep readers enthralled until the last page" (Publishers Weekly, starred).
