Related: Book Review | Lock Every Door by Riley Sager But Lock Every Door is probably still my favorite Sager book because I didn’t guess the ending and it was a more unique concept. In terms of creepiness and atmospheric setting, Home Before Dark is his best to date. That says a lot about Sager’s writing and storytelling because usually when I figure things out in a mystery/thriller, I get annoyed. Home Before Dark was a bit easier to figure out than Sager’s previous books, but I was honestly enjoying the House of Horrors chapters so much that I didn’t care that I could figure out the mystery. I loved that the present story started to mirror the chapters from the book. The book is written in alternating chapters between Maggie’s POV and a chapter from her father’s book. I did know the setting was a Gothic mansion where spooky things had happened, but that was it. This book was incredible! I honestly never read the plot synopsis for Home Before Dark before reading it, so the setup for the story was a surprise for me. But first, she will determine whether her father’s book was a lie or if there was some truth to the haunting.

Now Maggie has inherited the house and intends to sell it. Maggie has spent her entire life being judged by events she has no memory of. Maggie’s father wrote a book, House of Horrors, sharing his belief that the house is haunted. Then they fled from the house in the middle of the night and never returned for their belongings.

For twenty days, she and her parents resided in Baneberry Hall. Maggie has been haunted by her past for twenty-five years. This was my most anticipated book of 2020, and I’m thrilled to have an “advance” copy of the title (release date is June 30, 2020). Hello, fellow readers! I was beyond thrilled when Book of the Month announced Home Before Dark by Riley Sager would be a June 2020 pick.
