But just when they think the house is ready, Mia discovers a shocking message scored into a skirting board: I WILL SAVE THEM FROM THE ATTIC. Following the clue up into the eaves, the couple make a gruesome discovery: their home was once a real-life murder house, with the evidence still concealed within the four walls.

Oh No, He Didn't

This story percolates along at a great pace, presenting a cast of characters who are all either hiding a secret or running from one. Flashbacks are very common here, and there is a pretty large cast, which may deter a few readers. However, most will find a well-written tale.

It was definitely a four-star read for me until the end approached. The final couple of twists just did me in. Of course, this is a matter of taste and not everyone will feel the same way I did about the final chapters. Trigger warnings are definitely in order here, as readers will find abuse of children (both mental and physical), torture, and kidnapping. It's a fairly traumatic storyline, and obviously not for everyone.
