Hidden Pictures

I loved it. The surprises really surprise and it has that hard-to-achieve propulsiveness that won't let you put it down. And the pictures are terrific! -- STEPHEN KING Must be the boldest double twist of the year. Truly fantastic * THE TIMES * Part ghost story, part social-inequality satire [with] genuine paper jump-scares * GUARDIAN * Tightly plotted and well written [...] A gripping page-turner with intriguing characters and genuinely creepy moments * DAILY MIRROR * Whip-smart, creepy as hell, and masterfully plotted, Hidden Pictures is the best new thriller I've read in years. Destined to be a classic of the genre -- RANSOM RIGGS * AUTHOR OF MISS PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN * A disturbing household secret has far-reaching consequences in this dark, unusual ghost story . . . Rekulak does a great job with character development: Mallory, who narrates in the first person, has an engaging voice; the Maxwells' slightly overbearing parenting style and passive-aggressive quips feel very familiar; and Teddy is so three-dimensional that he sometimes feels like a real child. It's almost enough to make a person believe in ghosts * KIRKUS REVIEWS * So spooky * BUZZFEED * Hidden Pictures isn't a ghost story, it's a scalpel that slices into our smug sense of self-satisfaction so deeply it hits bone. A perfect summer thriller complete with vengeful spirits, class warfare, and it even has pictures. What more could you want? -- GRADY HENDRIX * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR * One of the best and most inventive ghost stories I've read in years. The damaged but still fighting Mallory Quinn stole my heart. It's a beautiful dark rush of a novel. I'm already excited to read it again -- JOE HILL * AUTHOR OF THE FIREMAN * A gripping supernatural thriller * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY * The explosive third act gives this story a nail-biting ending sure to thrill * BOOKLIST * Memorable and twisty . . . Seems designed to be read at the side of the pool with a drink in your hand and a smile on your face * ESQUIRE *
