Everyone is lying
But the dead know the truth
Ex-tarot reader Blue is untethered after the death of her vulnerable mother three years ago. In an attempt to confront her grief, and to begin to move on with her own life, she turns to Hope Marsh House. Molly and Joshua Park, the owners, offer a unique grief retreat and Blue commits to a week surrounded by others who understand.
But everything isn't as it seems. A storm is raging outside and one of the guests has disappeared without a trace. And now there seems to be no prospect of leaving.
Blue realises that everyone here has their secrets.
And one of them is a killer.

«Rebecca Thorne's The Grief House is a truly original story, with a compelling, in-depth exploration of grief, trauma and healing. I was totally gripped by the gradual, skilful revelation of Blue's story, and the ways in which her mother's obsessions marked her life. The setting is masterfully depicted, with the tension rising in tandem with the flood waters threatening the house. An absolute page-turner, this is a must for thriller fans »
