House of Glass ~ Sarah Pekkanen

Reviewed by Dusti

First of all I would like to thank St Martin’s Press for providing me with an advanced copy of House of Glass to review.

Stella is a BIA – Best interest attorney. She works for minors in situations to make sure that their best interests are taken into consideration. Normally, she does not take on very young children, but at the insistence of her mentor, she has decided to work for 9 year old Rose who has traumatic mutism after seeing her nanny fall to her death and is now being affected by her parents messy divorce.

There are actually two different mysteries in the pages of this book. Stella finally deciding to come to grips with her own traumatic childhood as well as what actually happened at the Barclay house full of betrayal, lies and maybe even murder?

I enjoyed this book immensely and could not put it down. The characters are engaging and the puzzle of what will come to light kept me flipping through the pages. One of the mysteries I nearly puzzled out before the reveal but the other one had me hooked right until the end.

House of Glass publishes on August 6 2024 and will be available at your local library or bookstore, or you can support my blog by preordering here
