Black House

Black House by Stephen King and Peter Straub is a dark, page-turning thriller that pulls a former detective back into a case he can’t ignore. Set in small-town Wisconsin, it blends crime fiction with eerie supernatural suspense, and it’s especially satisfying for readers who love stories where the past won’t stay buried. Jack Sawyer has built a quiet life in French Landing after leaving the LA homicide squad behind. But when a string of child murders shakes the town, Jack is drawn into the investigation and forced to confront fragments of memory he’s kept locked away for decades. The closer he gets to the truth, the more he senses a connection to a terrifying place he once escaped. Perfect for fans of Stephen King, small-town noir, parallel worlds and psychological horror, as well as anyone who enjoys a long, immersive mystery with real emotional weight. Step inside Black House and see what’s been waiting for Jack all along.
