About this listen
JEKYLL & HYDE meets THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE in this dark and twisting thriller from the author of Bad Parts.
Kelly O’Neill hates many things—her dead-end job, her passionless marriage, her strained relationship with her daughter—but none more than the month of September.
Each year, a sinister letter arrives in her mailbox, a chilling reminder of her past misdeeds sent by a grieving mother. But this year, as the message reaches Kelly, a nightmarish entity attacks her daughter Emma within the confines of an eerie abandoned house. Though physically unharmed, Emma is left mysteriously unable to walk after the incident.
As Emma struggles to recover, Kelly ventures into the house's attic, desperate to unravel the source of the horror. To her astonishment, she encounters a doppelganger—an exact replica of herself, with the same appearance, voice, and mannerisms.
Determined to understand her daughter’s worsening condition, Kelly captures the doppelganger and demands answers. But instead of answers, she receives another vengeful letter in the mail. This time, the threat is clear—Kelly must confront her own dark past or risk losing her daughter forever.
In a heart-pounding race against time, Kelly must navigate a treacherous alliance with her doppelganger and piece together the connection between the house, the letters, and their malevolent sender. Will Kelly uncover the truth and save her daughter before they both succumb to a morbid fate?

Well paced and addictive from start to finish
I listened to the entire novel in less than 72 hours. It’s gripping in a way that had me making excuses to drive or cut grass or engage in literally any solitary activity in order to listen to another chapter and advance the story! The performance is excellent and I like how there’s such definite distinctions between all of the voices that make it easy for a listener to discern who’s speaking. The story itself was full of twists and turns. I’m usually pretty good at predicting where a story will go but I was way off this time. This is a 5 out of 5 star work. Highly recommended!

Engaging Story and Narration
The story is gripping and unique. the characters are relatable. The pacing is perfect and each scene moves seamlessly. The narrator captures the feel, and provides a distinct voice to each character without sounding cartoonish.

Perhaps the most thrilling and terrifying…
…is the self reflection of seeing the characters in yourself as you read/listen. McNulty’s latest delves into places I shudder to think about and I love it.

The slow burn of things spiraling out of control more and more is fantastic
Enjoyed the zoomed in perspective on the main characters, bad decision-making, plus there are some great ideas and twists

So creative and unexpectedly deep
A wonderfully inventive thriller with a lot of deep delving into the souls of the characters. In the end I think this is a tale that will haunt you long after the ending with the deeper meanings behind what is going on.
