Solace House was so for me.

I knew I was going to like this book from the first chapter. The writing, the characters, the kinda uneasy vibes, amazing. And then things started to get a little weird with a disorienting house and some explorations of grief and obsession and I was so into it. And then there was a reference to a Queen song from my favourite of their albums (and the painting it's inspired by). And I knew this would be a 5 star read.

It felt like Will Maclean was in my brain when he wrote this. It is so unbelievably for me. I loved the way the dynamics between characters shifted and the unsettling atmosphere throughout. The 500 pages flew by because I could not stop reading. I finished it and was so tempted to immediately restart it.

Favourite book of the year, hands down. I will definitely be picking up more from this author too.

Summary: Holly Stewart moved into Solace House thinking it would be a fresh start for her and her family. She knew a tragic murder had taken place there, but she didn’t know the full ghastly history of the house.

Now, her husband has lost his job, the children are bullied at school, and someone is prowling around the garden at night. Someone who wants them gone.

Detective Jackman wants to help. Instead he’s been pulled into a 20-year-old cold case. The gruesome murder of a young woman whose head was never found. A new witness comes forward. He claims to have crucial evidence on what really happened that night.

Days later, a group of litter-pickers uncover black sacks containing dismembered human limbs. Attending the scene, DS Marie Evans is shocked to see a strange symbol carved into the victim’s flesh: the same symbol found on the headless girl all those years ago.

The murders must be connected. But why has the killer struck again — after 20years?

As the threats to the Stewart family escalate, Jackman must choose between helping people in the present and solving the crimes of the past.

Full of twists and turns, this is a crime thriller that will keep you turning the pages until the explosive ending.
