Hardcover, 352 pages
Published Sept. 28, 2021 by Tor Nightfire.
This is the story of a serial killer. A stolen child. Revenge. Death. And an ordinary house at the end of an ordinary street.
All these things are true. And yet they are all lies...
You think you know what's inside the last house on Needless Street. You think you've read this story before. That's where you're wrong.
In the dark forest at the end of Needless Street, lies something buried. But it's not what you think...
Fantastic plot. Well written. Emotionally moving. I strongly recommend reading it. 4.5 rounded up to 5.
disorienting at first, each chapter has a different narrator, and they are weird. when the plot develops, it gets easier to read. and the weird is good.
some plot points are easy to discover ahead of the narration but still brilliant
I picked this book from the local store shortly after finishing Sundial, because I really enjoyed Catriona Ward's writing.
This was another thrilling page-turner about a young girl's disappearance in rural Washington state and the people who are involved in solving the mystery.
Catriona Ward is a force of nature behind the written word. She's fast becoming one of my favorite authors.
