This begins the morning Catherine Clare died.
The day her daughter spent in the house with her.
The evening her husband came home to find her.

This becomes the tale of their marriage,
and the ones around them.
A tale of bonds between families,
between lives living and lost
and of the lonely ones that share no bonds at all.
Who should be pitied.
Who must be feared.

Industry Reviews

Ghosts, murder, a terrifying psychotic who seems normal, and beautiful writing. Loved it - Stephen King

What, at first, seems to be a crime novel is much more, working on several levels. It's the painful story of a marriage that should never have happened . . . Not so much a whodunnit as a whydunnit, this richly imagined, sprawling novel contains scalpel-sharp dissections - Daily Mail

Haunting . . . Brundage exposes the mind of the killer in slow and forensic detail - Sunday Times

I bloody loved this. I could have taken weeks over it, lingering on the harmony and beauty of her language and the creeping delicacy of what was going on - but the plot and the people pull you in. . . A lot of people will be getting this for their birthdays this year. - Louisa Young

One of the most ambitious, original and gorgeously written novels that I've ever read - and been unable to forget. - Caroline Leavitt

All Things Cease to Appear is a riveting ghost story, psychological thriller, and literary page turner. At its heart, this is a story about women's grit and courage, will and intelligence. - Kate Christensen

At once high art and a spellbinding thriller, this is a book of many wonders, including a character as creepily sinister as any created by Patricia Highsmith - Beverly Lowry

Superb . . . think a more literary, and feminist, Gone Girl. As the seemingly perfect marriage at its core reminds us, the most lethal deceptions are the stories we tell ourselves - Vogue
