Review (New Release): The Homecoming by Andrew Pyper

Bestselling author Andrew Pyper returns with a riveting psychological thriller about how the people you’ve known your whole life can suddenly become strangers. What if everything you knew about the people you loved was a lie? After the death of their absentee father, Aaron and Bridge Quinlan travel to a vast rainforest property in the Pacific Northwest to hear the reading of his will. There, they meet up with their mother and troubled sister, Franny, and are shocked to discover the will’s terms: in order to claim their inheritance they must remain at the estate for thirty days without any contact with the outside world. Despite their concerns, they agree. The Quinlans soon come to learn their family has more secrets than they ever imagined—revelations that at first inspire curiosity, then fear. Why does Bridge have faint memories of the estate? Why did their father want them to be sequestered there together? And what is out there they feel pulling them into the dark heart of the woods?

My Thoughts~~~

The Homecoming is the first book that I have read by Andrew Pyper, and it was a truly gripping read! The story setting is dark and eerie, and Pyper skillfully builds the suspense. The mood only intensifies with each frightening encounter, and I had so many questions and ideas running through my mind as I tried to figure out which direction the story was leading. While there were some far-fetched situations towards the end, it was an edge of your seat ride for the vast majority of the book. There were twists that I didn't see coming, and big reveals I never would have guessed. If you're in the mood for drama, secrets, high creep factor, and a thriller that will draw you in, check out The Homecoming!
