Praise for The Cold House:
“A wonderfully gripping modern gothic tale of haunting, grief, secrets and lies. A remote community, an unreliable narrator, and twisty reveals that keep on coming—I read it in one sitting! Highly recommended!”
Sarah Pinborough, the #1 international bestselling author of We Live Here Now and Netflix’s Behind Her Eyes
“The Cold House is a unique blend of folk and grief horror—emotionally raw, captivating, and a twisting, winding descent into darkness. No one does it like Slatter. I’m a fan for life!”
Sadie Hartmann ‘Mother Horror’, Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of 101 Horror Books to Read Before You’re Murdered
“Old magic and fresh grief twist together, weaving a growing dread that builds to an explosive conclusion.”
Kelley Armstrong, #1 bestselling author of the Rip Through Time series and Every Step She Takes
“Claustrophobic and elegantly plotted, The Cold House is full of grief, mystery, and the pain of family secrets. Slatter just keeps getting better!”
Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Birds and The House of Last Resort
“A luscious little labyrinth of a book, drenched in ambiance and dripping with delicious prose, full of twists, turns, terror, torment, and triumph.”
Delilah S. Dawson, New York Times bestselling author of Bloom and Guillotine
“A gorgeous and unsettling entry into the horror genre. Slatter melds grief and folk horror with a master’s touch. There’s a tender brutality in her turns of phrase and a humanity in her characters that will move even the hardest soul. If I dared, I’d beg a final request to keep reading and reading and reading.”
Kristi DeMeester, author of Dark Sisters and Such a Pretty Smile
“A masterclass in storytelling. Slatter rolls out her devastating revelations smoothly and with perfect timing, drawing us into this sad, terrifying novella with ease, and chilling us to the bone.”
Kaaron Warren, author of The Underhistory
“Starting with the classic set up to a psychological thriller, The Cold House quickly morphs into something darker and stranger. Reminiscent of folk horror classics The Wicker Man and Robin Redbreast, this slice of rural noir is punchy, pacy and atmospheric.”
Olivia Isaac-Henry author of The Verdict and Sorrow Spring
