![]() I think I had more problems with this novel’s resolution than any of his others, but still, Sager is the absolute master of gripping, pacy thrillers, and this one is no exception definitely recommended if it catches your eye. Set in a decaying Victorian estate in Vermont (can’t go wrong there), Home Before Dark is a sufficiently eerie and unsettling haunted house horror story which indulges a lot of genre’s tropes, but which doesn’t ultimately subvert them in a very interesting way. ![]() I’ve read all of Sager’s books now and this isn’t one of my favorites from him I’d put it second to last, with only The Last Time I Lied below it. Let’s see if I can come up with a few sentences. I read this book over a year ago and annoyingly never got around to reviewing it - I’m only returning to it now as I’m about to review Riley Sager’s newest offering, Survive the Night, and I’m a completionist. ![]()
