THE SUNDAY TIMES BEST BOOK OF SUMMER 2023. She saw everything that happened that night... But does she know the truth? A murder that shocked the nation. Twenty years ago, Joseph Flowers killed his parents and little brother in cold blood, and then... I spent the night uneventfully at a friend's house, working on my computer game. In the morning, he crashed his car into a tree and has since fallen into a coma, and their family farm became known as the Red House. A place where the walls were stained with blood. She thought she knew the killer. Only Eva, Joseph's younger sister, survived that night. She was the only witness to the murder of her family, but still does not understand what pushed her brother to this terrible crime. What if she was wrong? As an adult, Eva is forced to reconsider her memories when new evidence in this case comes to light. And there are rumors that that night Joseph created a hidden level in his game that contains the key to the truth about the murder of the Flowers family. “One of the best modern crime writers.” – ELLIE GRIFFITHS “Once again confirmation that Watkins is one of the best British crime writers.” – DAILY MAIL “Watkins is great at handling complex subjects.” - SARAH LINLEY "A skillfully written, twist-filled, gripping and suspenseful novel." – B.A. PARIS “The Red House” amazed me from the very first page! Beautifully written, with a perfect sense of pacing. I thought I was good at finding clues, but I was confused by this amazingly clever riddle. I really liked it!” - AMANDA BRITTANY, author of I'M WATCHING YOU "I couldn't put this story down... I literally raced through the Red House, so desperate to find out the real story behind the murder of Eve's family - a real page-turner with a brilliant final twist." — LISA HALL, author of THE WOMAN IN THE WOODS “Rose Watkins writes books so rich in atmosphere that you have to constantly check that you are safe at home, reading, rather than actually experiencing every dark moment with the characters.” – SI. ES. GREEN, author of THE WISPER HOUSE
