The Red House

The Red House by Emily Winslow

Maxwell is living a nightmare when he begins to question whether his fiancée Imogen is his own sister - separated by adoption. Worse, he fears that she may already know that she is, and is marrying him anyway. A visit to her birthplace in Cambridge stirs up some déjà vu that confirm Maxwell's troubles. Former DCI Morris Keene languishes at home, struggling with a debilitating injury. DI Chloe Frohmann's new partner is all too willing to believe the worst when Morris' daughter Dora is accused of assisting a suicide. Buried skeletons discovered next to an old barn link the suicide and Imogen's childhood, revealing horrors in the past and triggering danger in the present.

Time these excellent stories were snapped up by a TV company' Books Monthly 'Emily Winslow's latest novel The Red House is psychological crime writing at its best. Compelling from page one, with hugely sympathetic characters, it weaves a complex tale of past and present mysteries, which left me guessing right to the end.
