Reviews"The buzz building around Catriona Ward's The Last House on Needless Street is real. I've read it and was blown away. It's a true nerve-shredder that keeps its mind-blowing secrets to the very end. Haven't read anything this exciting since Gone Girl ." --Stephen King "Sensational....I can't recall another novel in recent years that dares so much and succeeds so wildly." --A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window "A chilling and beautiful masterpiece of suspense, cunningly plotted and written with the elegant imagination of a Shirley Jackson or a Sarah Waters. I was completely enthralled." --Joe Hill, New York Times bestselling author of The Fireman "A breathtakingly ambitious book, gorgeously written, and never once shies away from showing you its fangs and its beautiful blood-filled heart. Stop reading this blurb already and open the damn book." --Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts "A masterpiece. Beautiful, heartbreaking and quietly uplifting. One of the most powerful and well-executed novels I've read in years." --Alex North, author of The Whisper Man "Absolutely brilliant. This is extraordinary, high-wire-act horror, audacious as hell." --Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Red Hands "Dark and creepy, sad and wonderfully strange. It kept me glued and guessing right up to the end--I loved every inch of it." --Mike Mignola, creator of Hellboy " This book was like an onion. Layer after layer after layer and then you're crying and somebody's got a knife. A brutal, twisty, puzzle box of a book. I stayed up way past my bedtime. " --T. Kingfisher, author of The Hollow Places "What did I just read?! One perfect sentence after the other ... this is a story I wish I knew how to write--and I'm thrilled that Ward pulled off this trick of a book." --Rachel Howzell Hall, author of And Now She's Gone "THIS IS THE BEST HORROR NOVEL I HAVE EVER READ. Even Shirley Jackson, her Majesty, would have to concede to this one." --Natasha Pulley, author of The Watchmaker of Filigree Street "Books like this don't come around too often... I would say I inhaled this in one, but I think I was too busy holding my breath throughout. Bravo." --Joanne Harris, New York Times bestselling author of The Gospel of Loki "The new face of literary dark fiction." --Sarah Pinborough, New York Times bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes "Full of twists and turns, this high-concept gothic horror is going to be huge." -- Guardian "Incredible. Absolutely creep-inducing, skin-crawling, even agonising; and also so beautiful, both in writing and heart. One of my favourite things in ages." --James Smythe, author of The Explorer "Incredible. Just incredible. Throughout, I didn't know where to put my heart. A breathtaking, fiercely beautiful novel." --Rio Youers, author of Lola on Fire "Breathtakingly brilliant. Dark and relentlessly twisty, the best thing I've read this year." --Lisa Hall, author of The Party "Not only edge of the seat, terrifying suspenseful horror, but it also broke my heart into tiny pieces. Such exquisite writing." --Muriel Gray, author of The Ancient, "The buzz building around Catriona Ward's The Last House on Needless Street is real. I've read it and was blown away.

This is extraordinary, high-wire-act horror, audacious as hell." --Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Red Hands "THIS IS THE BEST HORROR NOVEL I HAVE EVER READ. Even Shirley Jackson, her Majesty, would have to concede to this one." --Natasha Pulley, author of The Watchmaker of Filigree Street "Books like this don't come around too often... I would say I inhaled this in one, but I think I was too busy holding my breath throughout. Bravo." --Joanne Harris, New York Times bestselling author of The Gospel of Loki "The new face of literary dark fiction." --Sarah Pinborough, New York Times bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes "Incredible. Absolutely creep-inducing, skin-crawling, even agonising; and also so beautiful, both in writing and heart. One of my favourite things in ages." --James Smythe, author of The Explorer "Incredible. Just incredible. Throughout, I didn't know where to put my heart. A breathtaking, fiercely beautiful novel." --Rio Youers, author of Halcyon "Breathtakingly brilliant. Dark and relentlessly twisty, the best thing I've read this year." --Lisa Hall, author of The Party "Not only edge of the seat, terrifying suspenseful horror, but it also broke my heart into tiny pieces. Such exquisite writing." --Muriel Gray, author of The Ancient, "The buzz building around Catriona Ward's The Last House on Needless Street is real. I've read it and was blown away. It's a true nerve-shredder that keeps its mind-blowing secrets to the very end. Haven't read anything this exciting since Gone Girl ." --Stephen King "A chilling and beautiful masterpiece of suspense, cunningly plotted and written with the elegant imagination of a Shirley Jackson or a Sarah Waters. I was completely enthralled." --Joe Hill, New York Times bestselling author of NOS4A2 "A breathtakingly ambitious book, gorgeously written, and never once shies away from showing you its fangs and its beautiful blood-filled heart.
