Trade ReviewI loved it. The
surprises really surprise and it has that hard-to-achieve propulsiveness that
won't let you put it down. And the pictures are terrific! -- STEPHEN KING
Must be the
boldest double twist of the year. Truly
fantastic * THE TIMES *
Part ghost story, part social-inequality satire [with]
genuine paper jump-scares * GUARDIAN *
Tightly plotted and well written [...] A
gripping page-turner with
intriguing characters and
genuinely creepy moments * DAILY MIRROR *
Whip-smart,
creepy as hell, and
masterfully plotted,
Hidden Pictures is the best new thriller I've read in years. Destined to be
a classic of the genre -- RANSOM RIGGS * AUTHOR OF MISS PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN *
A disturbing household secret has far-reaching consequences in this
dark, unusual ghost story . . . Rekulak does a great job with character development: Mallory, who narrates in the first person, has an engaging voice; the Maxwells' slightly overbearing parenting style and passive-aggressive quips feel very familiar; and Teddy is so three-dimensional that he sometimes feels like a real child. It's
almost enough to make a person believe in ghosts * KIRKUS REVIEWS *
So
spooky * BUZZFEED *
Hidden Pictures isn't a ghost story, it's a scalpel that slices into our smug sense of self-satisfaction so deeply it hits bone. A
perfect summer thriller complete with vengeful spirits, class warfare, and it even has pictures. What more could you want? -- GRADY HENDRIX * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR *
One of the
best and most inventive ghost stories I've read in years. The damaged but still fighting Mallory Quinn stole my heart. It's a
beautiful dark rush of a novel. I'm already excited to read it again -- JOE HILL * AUTHOR OF THE FIREMAN *
A
gripping supernatural thriller * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY *
The
explosive third act gives this story a n
ail-biting ending sure to thrill * BOOKLIST *
Memorable and twisty . . . Seems designed to be read at the side of the pool with a drink in your hand and a smile on your face * ESQUIRE *
