That’s what his mother always told him when he was a child. Years later, he is a true crime writer, with one grisly success—and a movie adaptation—to his name, along with a series of subsequent less notable efforts. But now he is being offered the chance for the big break: to move into the house where a pair of briefly notorious murders occurred, apparently the work of disaffected teens during the Satanic Panic of the 1980s. Chandler finds himself in Milpitas, California, a small town whose name rings a bell—his closest childhood friend lived there, once upon a time. He begins his research into the murders with diligence and enthusiasm, but soon the story leads him into a puzzle he never expected—back into his own work and what it means, back to the very core of what he does and who he is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDevil House\u003c\/i\u003e is John Darnielle’s most ambitious work yet, a book that blurs the line between fact and fiction, that combines daring formal experimentation with a spellbinding tale of crime, writing, memory, and artistic obsession.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Picador","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47017924854000,"sku":"9781250862884","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781250862884_p0.jpg?v=1763703584","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781250862884","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
