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 young 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. "Brilliant....[a] deeply
frightening deconstruction of the illusion of the self." - The New York Times
