In this chilling thriller from the bestselling authors of Spare Room, one woman just wants the truth about who she really is. But she’s not the only one looking…

It’s twenty years since Eva, a biracial woman, was adopted as an eight-year-old, and Cherry and Carlton ‘Sugar’ McNeil have always been the only parents she’s wanted or needed. But when she’s dealt the double blow of Cherry’s death and her own suspension from work, Eva decides it’s time to discover who she was before she was theirs.

Against Sugar’s advice, Eva joins a DNA database, desperate for a match that will unlock her identity. And when a positive hit comes, she’s excited to learn there are relations out there who might hold the key. But the closer Eva gets to uncovering her past, the more it appears someone is trying to stop her finally finding the truth…

As she continues to dig, Eva is drawn into a dark and merciless underside to society, where black women disappear without a word. Names erased from history, no search parties, no desperate pleas for their return. Once, someone tried to save Eva from all this. Someone wanted a better life for her. But now that she’s torn down the facade of her life, has she come too far to be spared again?

Сдается просторная комната для одного человека.
Лиза, девушка с тяжелым прошлым, не верит своей удаче, когда находит уютную комнату в красивом доме, еще и по разумной цене. Хозяева – добрая и приветливая пара. И все кажется идеальным, пока она не находит в спальне предсмертную записку. По словам владельцев, Лиза – их первый арендатор, а записка – ошибка или чья-то злая шутка.
Вынужденная раскрыть секреты предыдущего жильца, Лиза сталкивается с происшествиями, которые не поддаются объяснению. Кто-то совсем не хочет, чтобы правда вышла наружу.
Стены комнаты давят, загадки становятся все запутаннее, и Лиза уже не понимает, где реальность, а где сумасшедшая фантазия.
Если эта комната уже забрала одну жертву, ей нужна следующая?

Коли Ліза Кендал винайняла кімнату у вікторіанському маєтку в Північному Лондоні, то й гадки не мала, що на неї чекає. У приліжковій шафці вона знаходить передсмертну записку, вочевидь залишену попереднім власником її кімнати. Стривожена відкриттям, дівчина вирішує довідатися, ким був чоловік і що привело його до самогубства. Орендодавці наполягають, що перед Лізою інших пожильців у них не було. Та їм нема віри — особливо після чергової знахідки: записів небіжчика на стінах винайнятої кімнати. Пошук відповідей приведе дівчину на межу божевілля. Чи стане їй духу розплутати клубок загадок та брехні і дізнатися правду, а чи Ліза стане ще однією жертвою кімнати на винайм?..

Home Is Where The Nightmare Is

Beautiful double room to let to single person

Lisa, a troubled young woman with a past, can’t believe her luck when she finds a beautiful room to rent in a large house. The live-in owners are a kind and welcoming couple. Everything is fine until she finds a suicide note hidden in her room. But when the couple insist this man didn’t exist and that Lisa is their first tenant, Lisa begins to doubt herself.

Compelled to undercover the secrets of the man who lived in the room before her, Lisa is alarmed when increasingly disturbing incidents start to happen. Someone doesn’t want Lisa to find out the truth.

As the four walls of this house and its secrets begin to close in on Lisa, she descends into a hellish hall of mirrors where she’s not sure what’s real and what’s not as she claws her way towards the truth…

Did this room already claim one victim?
Is it about to take another?
