Why read it?

1 author picked Malice House as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book! It was a hard call to put this one second, but ultimately I recommend the first book to more folks. But Malice House was perfectly creepy, with some of my favorite monsters ever. Pinchy.

I will never get over Pinchy! The twists in this book were spot on. The way it blends the line between thriller and supernatural horror was so much fun that I didn’t want the story to end. I would have happily kept reading this book for hundreds more pages.
