But ever since her mother’s death she’s been carrying a secret. Could this finally help her let it go?  When she arrives, it’s raining, and there’s something strange about the house. Only a few guests have made it through the weather. As the owners, Molly and Joshua Park, try desperately to cling to normality, the storm worsens until they’re stranded in the house – cut off from the outside world.  And after one of the guests disappears in the night, Blue wonders who around her, the Parks and the guests, is telling the truth about why they’re there – and whose grief might be hiding a deeper secret.   The floodwater rises. Everyone is keeping secrets – but only one is a killer. Can Blue escape with her life, and her sanity?  ------------------  \u003cb\u003e'Guaranteed to chill you to the bone' Rebecca Netley\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003e'Kept me turning pages long into the night' Chris Whitaker \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003e'Chilling, claustrophobic and creepy as hell' Jo Jakeman\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBeautifully written, and with an intricately plotted mystery at its core, this is a rare treat \u003c\/b\u003e * Heat *\u003cbr\u003eA compulsive, atmospheric thriller, \u003cb\u003eThorne’s bewitching prose had me hooked from the first page\u003c\/b\u003e -- Anna Bailey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA brooding, haunting and deeply heartfelt thriller that kept me turning the pages long into the night\u003c\/b\u003e -- Chris Whitaker, winner of the CWA Gold Dagger and Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year Award\u003cbr\u003eAn \u003cb\u003eemotional, constantly tense, scary and yet ultimately utterly human story that pulled me in and wrung me out. \u003c\/b\u003eOne of my absolute books of the year -- Gytha Lodge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBeautifully written\u003c\/b\u003e and with supernatural elements \u003cb\u003eguaranteed to chill you to the bone\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cb\u003e This compelling novel will snatch you up and not put you down again until you’ve finished\u003c\/b\u003e -- Rebecca Netley\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Grief House \u003c\/i\u003eis \u003cb\u003ea sublime novel\u003c\/b\u003e.
