Description
WINNER OF AMAZON AND USA TODAY EDITOR PICKS. A dark family secret, toxic relationships, and shadows of the past in a scorching desert—an intensely tangled and worrying psychological thriller in the best traditions of Stephen King.
No matter how much you run, the past will catch you…
32-year-old Rob only wants a normal life—she has everything for it: a husband, two children, and a cute little house in the suburbs. But then a new cause for anxiety appears: her eldest daughter Callie, a strange and suspicious girl, starts collecting animal bones and talking to imaginary friends. Rob sees darkness in her daughter—darkness that reminds her too strongly of her own past. She realizes it’s time to return to the place where she grew up, and together with Callie she heads to Sandyle, a spot in the uninhabited Mojave desert. And that’s where the horrifying things begin…
Now Callie has to watch out for her mother: Rob starts digging holes in the backyard and tells bizarre stories from her childhood about a mysterious twin sister. Only one of them seems able to escape this desert alive?
“DON’T MISS THIS BOOK! Truly horrifying…” — Stephen King
“Ward is one of the most talented authors in this genre today. A story in which everything turns out not to be what it seems, like a room full of mirrors. You’re in for turns so wild you won’t be able to sleep afterward.” — Alex Michaelides
“During the reading of ‘Sandyle,’ my heart drops into my shoes.” — Joe Hill
“In this novel, Catriona Ward has woven a vivid story about family, death, hallucinations, and a hereditary trauma… A must-read for fans of gothic literature and tense psychological thrillers.” — Publishers Weekly
“There are two things you need to know about this novel. First, it’s brilliant. Second, it’s terrible, truthful, and frightening. Catriona Ward knows what horror is.” — Alma Katsu
