"This is an absolute, can't-put-it-down thriller. . . . It's truly a wild ride that had me flying through chapter after chapter-which I think is the perfect way to kick off your year of reading."-Reese Witherspoon (Reese's Book Club Pick January 2023)
Armed with only hazy memories, a woman who long ago witnessed her friend's sudden, mysterious death, and has since spent her life trying to forget, sets out to track down answers. What she uncovers, deep in the woods, is hardly to be believed. . . .
Maya was a high school senior when her best friend, Aubrey, dropped dead in front of the enigmatic man named Frank whom they'd been spending time with all summer.
Seven years later, Maya lives in Boston with a loving boyfriend and is kicking the secret addiction that has allowed her to cope with what happened years ago, the gaps in her memories, and the lost time that she can't account for. But her past comes rushing back when she comes across a recent YouTube video in which a young woman suddenly keels over and dies in a diner while sitting across from none other than Frank. Plunged into the trauma that has defined her life, Maya heads to her Berkshires hometown to relive that fateful summer-the influence Frank once had on her and the obsessive jealousy that nearly destroyed her friendship with Aubrey.
At her mother's house, she excavates fragments of her past and notices hidden messages in her deceased Guatemalan father's book that didn't stand out to her earlier. To save herself, she must understand a story written before she was born, but time keeps running out, and soon, all roads are leading back to Frank's cabin. . . .
Utterly unique and captivating, The House in the Pines keeps you guessing about whether we can ever fully confront the past and return home.

Bestseller New York TimesMaya era în liceu când a văzut-o pe Aubrey căzând secerată în fața lui Frank, un bărbat enigmatic cu care își petrecuseră amândouă vara. După șapte ani, Maya stă în Boston cu iubitul ei și încearcă să scape de dependența care a ajutat-o să reziste până acum. Însă trecutul o copleșește când vede o înregistrare cu o altă femeie care moare subit în fața aceluiași Frank.Maya se întoarce acasă, unde începe să dezgroape fragmente din trecut și să observe mesaje ascunse în cartea neterminată a tatălui ei guatemalez. Ca să se salveze, trebuie să înțeleagă o poveste scrisă înainte să se fi născut ea, însă nu i-a rămas mult timp și toate drumurile duc înapoi la cabana lui Frank…„Este un thriller pe care categoric nu poți să-l lași din mână. M-a făcut să zbor din capitol în capitol!" Reese Witherspoon„Debutul lui Reyes e un thriller captivant, inteligent, care mi-a dat fiori. Cu intriga complicată, scriitura splendidă și personajele complexe, conturate detaliat, Casa dintre pini e una dintre cărțile rare în care trăiești de la prima până la ultima pagină. Nu voiam să se termine — și abia aștept să descopere și cititorii noua mea autoare favorită." Andrea Bartz, autoarea bestsellerului N-am fost niciodată acolo„E o carte care te plimbă înainte și înapoi și care cu siguranță te ține ca pe ace." New York Post„Tensiunea psihologică intensă e amplificată de golurile de memorie și percepțiile deformate ale Mayei, care dau poveștii o tentă întunecată, supranaturală." Booklist„Debutul lui Reyes are tot ce-și poate dori un cititor de thrillere: un narator nedemn de încredere, o dependență, piste false, secrete vechi, un periplu de șapte ani în căutarea dreptății. Dar este și o poveste fascinantă despre prietenie între femei, loialitate răsplătită, dragoste maternă și dorința intensă de-a dezlega mistere, chiar și în fața răului." AmazonAna Reyes locuiește în Los Angeles și are un masterat de la Louisiana State University. Lucrările ei de ficțiune și poezie au apărut, printre altele, în revistele Bodega, Pear Noir, The New Delta Review. Casa dintre pini este primul ei roman. O puteți urmări pe www.anareyeswriter.com
