A no-brakes plummet into madness. -- ALMA KATSU * award winning author of Fiend * Disturbing and propulsive, THE CARETAKER is a gem of visually inspired Gothic storytelling. Marcus Kliewer takes a familiar horror premise and makes it his own, drawing you into a lucid nightmare of a novel. Keep the light on! -- SCOTT CARSON * nationally bestselling author of Departure 37 * The homes Marcus Kliewer haunts aren't merely filled with phantoms, but cerebral spirits and broken-hearted ghosts. THE CARETAKER is quite possibly the ultimate don't go in there novel, offering up an apocalyptic final girl for the ages. This is a breakneck book, filled with razor-wire tension, where the reader runs the risk of losing their mind with every flip of the page. -- CLAY MCLEOD CHAPMAN * author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes * Absolutely terrifying. Marcus Kliewer's THE CARETAKER gripped me from the first page and didn't let go. I couldn't put it down. -- BRANDON ELDRIDGE * author of The Establishment * Fast-moving dark ride of a book . . . [ a] savage gut punch of an ending. Twisting and turning but wasting no momentum, this book is for those who like their thriller stories bowstring taut and their endings pitch black. * BOOKLIST *starred review * Totally up my street, hugely enjoyed. Vivid and compulsive in all its ratcheting dread. Cracking characterisation too. * Benedict Anning, author of Atomic Coffin * Praise for Marcus Kliewer's WE USED TO LIVE HERE: * : * One of the creepiest stories I've ever read! This twisted tale will haunt my nightmares for a long time to come! * FREIDA McFADDEN, No.1 New York Times bestselling author of The Housemaid * Inventive and genuinely scary, We Used to Live Here is the most impressive horror debut I've read in a long time. Marcus Kliewer is a talent to watch. * ALMA KATSU, bestselling author of The Hunger * There is a feeling that a small number of books conjure. It can be distilled to: Oh god, something aint right here. Their hallmark is a creeping, unaccountable, jangly dread that seeps into their pages until you almost wish you could stop readingbut of course, its too late. Youre in its grip. We Used to Live Here is one of those rare books. * NICK CUTTER, bestselling author of The Troop *
