"This chilling domestic horror, told from the perspective of an eight-year-old girl who finds herself in conversation with a malevolent ‘Other Mommy’ who wants to gain access to her mind—or her family will pay. It comes with a rave review from Neil McRobert in Esquire which called it deeply discomfiting, imaginatively ripe, yet ruthlessly efficient” and asserts: “Simply put—and I do not say this lightly— Incidents Around the House is the most purely effective horror novel I have ever read.”"
