About this listen

In this thrilling novel from bestselling author John Marrs, a young couple’s house hides terrible secrets—and not all of them are confined to the past.

Mia and Finn are busy turning a derelict house into their dream home when Mia unexpectedly falls pregnant. 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.

In the wake of their traumatic discovery, the baby arrives and Mia can’t shake her fixation with the monstrous crimes that happened right above them. Tormented by the terrible things she saw, she is desperate to dig into the past to find answers.

Secrecy shrouds the mystery of the attic, but when shards of a dark truth start to emerge, Mia realises the danger is terrifyingly present. She is prepared to do anything to protect her family—but will the previous tenants stop her from discovering their secret?

Too dark for me

Too much death and especially the death of children. It left me feeling super sad.

Cartoonish villains and bad audio quality

I really wanted to like this book, but there are a few things that made me dislike it. First, having the (at first) anonymous villain narrated by the same character who ended up being the villain was a huge spoiler right from the beginning. Second, the narrator for Mia sounded like she was recording on a 2001 Nokia cellphone. Third, the villains in this story got more and more cartoonish as it went on, with their actions becoming less believable by the chapter. There was no one to really root for in this book. I've enjoyed John Marrs books before, but this one really missed the mark for me.

What a rollercoaster ride of a book!

Holy twist and turns you don’t see coming. This was a great listen and kept me guessing the whole time. Worth the credit for sure!

Slow burn

Started out slow so it was hard for me to stay focused at first but I’m glad I pushed through and kept listening..some twists I wasn’t expecting

Psychological thriller with lots of twists

I loved this book. I thought it had to be over multiple times but the burn stayed through the whole book.
