About The Book

A “sly and genuinely creepy” (PopSugar) suspense novel about a young couple whose disintegrating marriage and remote new home make for a terrifying descent into the darker side of human nature—from the New York Times bestselling author of A Simple Favor.

When Emma’s husband, Ben, falls in love with a large Victorian mansion for sale in rural upstate New York, he swears to her the fixer-upper will be worth the risk. With a baby on the way, Emma would like to live in a charming, safe community, and in a space larger than a one-bedroom New York City apartment. On impulse, she agrees to Ben’s plan, and they put in an offer on the house.

Sure, the mansion has a somewhat creepy backstory and is a bit dilapidated, but Emma and Ben are in this together. When strange things start happening, Emma begins to experience a little buyer’s remorse. What’s the real history of this house? Is its dark history repeating itself? Why does her husband suddenly seem so distant? Is she in danger? Is her baby?

An intensely “chilling novel” (Shelf Awareness), All I Want combines the domestic anxiety of Liane Moriarty with the haunting twists and turns of Shirley Jackson.
