About this listen
Domestic suspense meets haunted house horror in this adult debut from the New York Times bestselling author of Don’t Let the Forest In.
The walls are closing in on her perfect new life.
Single mother Elodie’s life has become a fairy tale. She’s met Bren, equal parts Golden-retriever-devoted and sinfully handsome. He’s whisked her and her autistic son, Jude, to the crumbling family house he’s renovating. She has a new husband, a new house, and a new baby on the way. Everything is perfect.
Until Jude claims he can hear voices in the walls. He says their renovations are “hurting” the house. Even Elodie can’t ignore it—something strange is going on.
The question is, Is it with the house, or with her son?
And what is Elodie hiding?
"Prepare to have your heartstrings clawed." - T. Marie Vandelly
Critic Reviews
<p>“Visceral, haunting, and blisteringly raw, <i>You Did Nothing Wrong</i> is a masterpiece of a gothic thriller with a keen smile and jagged teeth.” —Ava Reid, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>A Study in Drowning </i> <br><br>"In this haunted house book where nothing is as it seems, CG Drews balances unflinchingly disturbing horror with deeply empathetic characterizations. I read the first two twisty acts in a blur, and the climactic final third through my fingers, gripped more and more with every unraveling page." —Jennifer Thorne, Bestselling Author of <i>Diavola </i><br><br>"Prepare to have your heartstrings clawed at in this terrifyingly exquisite story of what lengths a parent will go to in order to protect their child from being crushed to death as the walls of their loving home close in." —T. Marie Vandelly, author of <i>Theme Music<br></i><br>"Suspenseful and gripping, with ratcheting tension that crawls under your skin. <i>You Did Nothing Wrong</i> is a dark and terrifying look at motherhood, and Drews's mesmerizing writing is sure to keep you hooked." — Monika Kim, author of <i>The Eyes Are the Best Part</i><br><br>“CG Drews writes monsters like no other. <i>You Did Nothing Wrong</i> is a brilliantly tense, paranoid, masterfully wrought house of pain where no room is ever as it seems. Reader, watch your step. I loved every second.” —Dawn Kurtagich, award-winning author of <i>The Madness</i> and <i>The Thorns</i><br><i><br>"You Did Nothing Wrong</i> pries open the unique anguish and joy of motherhood and shows us the insides, how such love eclipses the world. The sensory imagery is unrelenting. The emotion is beautifully raw. CG Drews has constructed an addictive story of desperation, young marriage, and family that examines how we renovate the past — and what a haunted house often really is. This novel drained my heart." —Michael Wehunt, author of <i>The October Film Haunt</i> and <i>Greener Pastures<br></i><br>"Vicious and claustrophobic from the first page! Drews deftly manipulates the darkest innermost desires and also my blood pressure with prose rich enough to eat. An absolute snakebite of a novel." —Neena Viel, author of <i>Listen To Your Sister</i></p>
