Looking Glass Sound
Another twisty psychological horror novel from the internationally bestselling author of The Last House on Needless Street and Sundial “DO NOT MISS THIS BOOK. Authentically terrifying.” —Stephen King on Sundial Unsuccessful author Dickie has returned to the lonely cottage on the New England coast where years ago he wrote his first book, never published. Here, he intends to write his last — his masterpiece. Dickie's protagonist is based on his nemesis, Sky, now dead. After the publication of Sky’s first novel, Looking Glass Sound, Sky’s fame and ego drove them apart. Dickie's last book will be a thinly veiled account of their friendship, and later, their enmity — a poisonous, New England Brideshead Revisited. This is Dickie's revenge. As he writes, the lines between fiction and reality slip. Events in the manuscript start to chime eerily with the present. Dickie discovers notes in Sky’s handwriting in the cottage, written in his favorite green ink, making crushing comments about Dickie’s writing and broken heart. Is Sky haunting Dickie? Has Dickie murdered Sky — or the other way around? As Dickie goes deeper into the work, a terrifying suspicion arises — that he himself may be an entirely fictional character, being written by Sky the novelist. Which version of the cottage, the sound — and which version of Dickie — is real?
