I’ve seen the moody tv series adaption – but the
book is a must-read for any domestic-thriller list!I really enjoyed
this roller coaster ride that takes you through romance, twists, and sometimes
creepy revelations. I also found the alternating of character voices and time
compelling. Sometimes, it doesn’t work – but I think the author did a great job
of this to build up to the surprise ending. Famed and mysterious architect
Edward Monkford carefully chooses occupants for a home he rents out who must
adhere to an extensive (and peculiar) list of rules in order to live there. The
story follows two “lucky” occupants of the property, Emma.
