Cindy R. X. He is an Edgar Award nominated author of Young Adult thrillers and adult psychological horror/thrillers.
Born and raised in multicultural Singapore, she now resides in the French Alps with her husband, children, and rescue cat. She skis in the winter, gets dragged on hikes in the summer (and sometimes, even worse still, camping), and hoards books all year round.
No One Else In Here
When a woman moves into the house where her father murdered her mother, she’s beset by a series of increasingly strange events, leading her to believe that there’s someone else hiding within the walls of her house—only to find out that the truth is so much darker.
Shirley never wanted to live in the house where her father murdered her mother. For the moment, though, her husband and her don’t have much of a choice. They just have to stay there until her husband finishes renovating their new home.
Even though she can't wait to get out, Shirley works on recovering her lost memories. She knows that if she can only remember what happened—find where she hid those five days when her father killed her mother—she can finally start to heal.
But in the dark, the house reverts to the nightmare house of her childhood. Unsettling dreams follow her into her waking hours. Her husband is increasingly aloof and strange. Food, wine, time keep going missing. Things go bump in the night. Shirley begins to wonder: could there be someone else in the house?
“A harrowing descent into madness. NO ONE ELSE IN HERE is a terrifying, razor-sharp thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat, leaving you to question even your own sanity. I was completely enthralled and read it in almost one sitting.”
