House of Echoes: A Novel

In this enthralling and atmospheric thriller, one young familyâ€™s dream of a better life is about to become a nightmare.

Ben and Caroline Tierney and their two young boys are hoping to start over. Ben has hit a dead end with his new novel, Caroline has lost her banking job, and eight-year-old Charlie is being bullied at his Manhattan school.

When Ben inherits land in the village of Swannhaven, in a remote corner of upstate New York, the Tierneys believe itâ€™s just the break they need, and they leave behind all they know to restore a sprawling estate. But as Ben uncovers Swannhavenâ€™s chilling secrets and Charlie ventures deeper into the surrounding forest, strange things begin to happen. The Tierneys realize that their new home isnâ€™t the fresh start they needed . . . and that the villageâ€™s haunting saga is far from over.

House of Echoes is a novel that shows how sometimes the ties that bind us are the only things that can keep us whole.

Praise for House of Echoes

â€œWarning: Brendan Duffyâ€™s debut novel is not for scaredy-cats. If you live for heart-racing chills, this thrillerâ€”about a young family that packs up their life in Manhattan for a spot in upstate New York (that turns out to be haunted, of course)â€”is already calling out your name.â€â€”Refinery29

â€œAlready drawing comparisons toÂ Stephen Kingâ€™sÂ The Shining, Brendan Duffyâ€™s debut novel offers chills without sacrificing character development. But be warned: you might want to leave the lights on for this one.â€â€”Paste

â€œShades of The Shining are spattered through Brendan Duffyâ€™s debut novelâ€”a large isolated house, a young family, nutty and somewhat supernatural goings-onâ€”but House of Echoes grounds itself in different ways for an enjoyable read.â€â€”USA Today

â€œAn exquisite novel . . . expertly plotted, beautifully written . . . Itâ€™s complex, deft and, once you dive in, you want to stay in this often-scary world. . . . This is a book that deserves to be savored.â€â€”The Star-Ledger

â€œDuffyâ€™s debut is a riveting blend of horror and family drama. The remote location, creepy townspeople and the villageâ€™s savage history produce a harrowing tale that keeps readers quickly turning the pages. As this complex family struggles with mental illness and their childâ€™s isolation, their redemption comes in the revelation that they can survive anything together.â€â€”RT Book Reviews (4 1/2 stars)

â€œHouse of Echoes is one of those stories where you know something bad is going to happen, but you hope it wonâ€™t. Itâ€™s one youâ€™ll remember long after reading the last page.â€â€”New York Journal of Books
