When the Nanny of a wealthy family mysteriously dies after a fall out of a window in the family estate, the families child, Rose, goes silent.
As part if Rose's parents pending divorce and custody battle, Stella, a BIA (best interest attorney) sets out to discover what custody situation will be best for Rose and report back to the judge.
Upon Stella's arrival, Rose's behaviour becomes increasingly concerning and disturbing. Having had childhood trauma herself, Stella is determined to heal Rose and get to the bottom of what truly happened to her Nanny.
House of Glass sucks you in from the very first chapter. Throughout the read, Pekkanen does an expert job of twisting a web of lies and deceit that leaves you question what you truly believe.
Completely unputdownable, dark, and complex, House of Glass is perfect for reads of Jennifer Hillier, Freida McFadden, and Heather Gudenkauf.
