Publisher's Summary

In this thrilling novel from bestselling author John Marrs, a young couple’s house hides terrible secrets—and not all of them are confined to the past.

Mia and Finn are busy turning a derelict house into their dream home when Mia unexpectedly falls pregnant. But just when they think the house is ready, Mia discovers a shocking message scored into a skirting board: I WILL SAVE THEM FROM THE ATTIC. Following the clue up into the eaves, the couple make a gruesome discovery: their home was once a real-life murder house, with the evidence still concealed within the four walls.

In the wake of their traumatic discovery, the baby arrives and Mia can’t shake her fixation with the monstrous crimes that happened right above them. Tormented by the terrible things she saw, she is desperate to dig into the past to find answers.

Secrecy shrouds the mystery of the attic, but when shards of a dark truth start to emerge, Mia realises the danger is terrifyingly present. She is prepared to do anything to protect her family—but will the previous tenants stop her from discovering their secret?

Good listen but didn’t really keep me guessing

Another good book from this Author. Listened because of Booktok recommendations, felt it started well but I wouldn’t say the plot twists etc where jaw dropping but still great listen and the performance was fantastic

What a wild ride

Such an enjoyable book. So many twists. The narration was good - I usually prefer one narrator but the 3 worked a treat
Do yourself a favour and read this book now

wow wow wow

This is the first book I have read from this author and I'm now hooked and can't wait to read more! There were so many twists in this story that I seriously thought the book had concluded at 3 points only to find more story to go (to my excitement)! The ending was perfect as well and I find myself thinking about the book a lot - a classic sign of a great read!

What, who, where, how?!? Must read!

This book is absolutely wonderful. Just when you think it is going in One Direction and you have picked the twist (and know what is going on) Something else comes at you!!! Definitely a must read for anyone who likes, psychological thrillers and likes to be surprised by twists.
