A Hitchcockian premise is given an exciting new spin, as voyeurism, murder, and the lies we tell ourselves about our nearest and dearest spiral out of control in this gripping mystery, where nothing is what it seems. I had a thrilling time reading this. An unputdownable page-turner." --Alex Michaelides, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Patient and The Maidens "Riley Sager is an auto-buy for me, and his latest propulsive thriller, The House Across The Lake , may just be my favorite of his yet.

One of the genre''s most entertaining authors." --Booklist "Casey as the unreliable narrator mixed with suspicious neighbors, supernatural undertones, and multiple blindsiding twists, means Sager ( Survive the Night ) has written another winner." --Library Journal "Go into the book blind for a full experience.

Your third will be wrong as well." -- The Big Thrill " Rear Window gets a jaw-dropping twist in this tense, daring and utterly propulsive thriller. If you''re not already reading Riley Sager, you''re missing out." -- Catherine Ryan Howard, #1 Irish bestselling author of 56 Days "Brilliantly written with a dark and clever twist on a well-worn trope, and as for that ending...?! What a fun book. I devoured it!" -- Susi Holliday, author of The Last Resort
