** PRE-ORDER THE NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF THE RICHARD & JUDY THRILLER AND SUNDAY TIMES
BESTSELLER THE RECOVERY OF ROSE GOLD ** ''A slow burn of suspense secrets and lies that - in
true Hitchcockian fashion - explodes into a series of twists each more jaw-dropping than the
last'' RILEY SAGER Alfred Smettle adores Hitchcock. And who better to become founder owner
and manager of The Hitchcock Hotel a remote sprawling Victorian house sitting atop a hill in
the beautiful White Mountains New England. There guests can find movie props and memorabilia
in every room round-the-clock film screenings and an aviary with fifty crows. For the
hotel''s first anniversary Alfred invites the five college friends he studied film with. He
hasn''t spoken to any of them in sixteen years. Not after what happened. But who better to
appreciate Alfred''s creation? His guests arrive and everything seems to go according to
plan. Until one glimpses someone standing outside her shower curtain. Another is violently ill
every time she eats the hotel food. Then their mobile phones go missing. You should always
make the audience suffer as much as possible right? The guests are stuck in the middle of
nowhere and things are about to get even worse. After all no Hitchcock set is complete
without a dead body. 'Artful construction shudder-inducing suspense and cinematic sparkle
make The Hitchcock Hotel the perfect weekend escape. Wrobel's inspired treatment of the
Hitchcockian motifs we know so well further secures her place as a master of premium
high-concept psychological fiction' TESSA WEGERT 'A master stylist Stephanie Wrobel strikes
