STARRED reviews from Library Journal and Publishers Weekly!

Catriona Ward’s The Last House on Needless Street is a shocking and immersive read perfect for fans of Gone Girl and The Haunting of Hill House.

In a boarded-up house on a dead-end street at the edge of the wild Washington woods lives a family of three.

A teenage girl who isn’t allowed outside, not after last time.

A man who drinks alone in front of his TV, trying to ignore the gaps in his memory.

And a house cat who loves napping and reading the Bible.

An unspeakable secret binds them together, but when a new neighbor moves in next door, what is buried out among the birch trees may come back to haunt them all…

— Stephen King

“The new face of literary dark fiction.”
— Sarah Pinborough, New York Times bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes

“Brilliant….[a] deeply frightening deconstruction of the illusion of the self.”
— The New York Times

“[T]he most powerful narratives in the genre manage to create an unshakable sense of unease, and that’s exactly what this novel does … a must-read for those who like the kind of labyrinthine narratives that pull the rug out from under you, sending you tumbling into a dark, dark room.”
— NPR

“This masterful horror novel packs an emotional wallop that lingers.”
— Publishers Weekly, starred review

“A stunning and immersive tale of psychological horror. It’s terrifyingly real and physically upsetting, yet, like the best of the genre, it leaves space for hope to ultimately shine through.”
— Library Journal, starred review
