Book Synopsis

A hugely inventive, hugely readable novel about two young people with Multiple Personality Disorder. 'A gripping novel of suspense that could have come from the pen of Stephen King at his best.’ Daily Telegraph



Trade Review

'A good old-fashioned crime novel, as readable as the most golden of golden age mysteries.' New Statesman

'Exceptional… Reading those first pages, you feel real excitement: the thump in head and heart of a captivating idea; the creepiness of a fairytale; the wonderment of coming across something which feels both original and authoritatively imagined.' Daily Telegraph

'A stunning, thrilling, deeply moving work of fiction.' PETER STRAUB, co-author of Black House

'Irresistible… utterly convincing… an odyssey of transformation and trust.' New York Times

'A stunning feat of literary craftsmanship, gripping for all of its 479 pages… Set This House in Order is pure fiction at its best.' San Francisco Chronicle

'A shockingly likable suspense story, not so much a whodunit as a whoisit… Extraordinary.' Boston Globe
