About the book
Ellen Saint may seem like your typical mother, dedicated to her family and striving for the best for her children. However, when her teenage son, Lucas, introduces a new friend into their home, cracks begin to show in Ellen's seemingly perfect family life.
Unlike Lucas, Kieran Watts is disrespectful, troublesome, and reckless, causing Ellen to worry as her son becomes more entangled in his influence.
As Ellen's world unravels, she becomes consumed by a desire for revenge. She is willing to go to extreme lengths for her children - even if it means committing murder.
Praise for this book
Tense, provocative and devastatingly powerful
'I didn’t read The Heights, I inhaled it
Compelling, unexpected and beautifully written
There’s nothing quite so chilling as the roar of mother tiger love. Louise Candlish had my heart in my throat. Dizzily dark. Dangerous. Deadly
The Heights has everything you could possibly wish for - tragedy, obsession, revenge and, yes, love. Another finely-crafted masterpiece from Louise Candlish
