Trying to escape her troubled past and rehabilitate a career on the rocks, former New York City cop Jenna Murphy hardly expects her lush and wealthy surroundings to be a hotbed of grisly depravity. But when a Hollywood power broker and his mistress are found dead in the abandoned Murder House, the gruesome crime scene rivals anything Jenna experienced in Manhattan. And what at first seems like an open and shut case turns out to have as many shocking secrets as the Murder House itself, as Jenna quickly realizes that the mansion's history is much darker than even the town's most salacious gossips could have imagined.
As more bodies surface, and the secret that Jenna has tried desperately to escape closes in on her, she must risk her own life to expose the truth-before the Murder House claims another victim. Full of the twists and turns that have made James Patterson the world's #1 bestselling writer, The Murder House is a chilling, page-turning story of murder, money, and revenge.

King of the best sellers list, Patterson delivers (with Ellis, his coauthor on last year's Invisible) a stand-alone thriller about a classy Hamptons house with a terrible history of violence. Sixteen years ago, it burned down in a suspicious blaze with a couple caught inside, after which it was rebuilt; now a Hollywood mogul and his mistress are found dead there. Local Noah Walker had a connection to the recent victims and must figure out the house's dark secrets or he will be charged with their deaths.
