The mesmerising new novel from the winner of the 2016 Costa Short Story Award, following her debut novel Himself, which was longlisted for the CWA John Creasey (New Blood) Dagger.
Maud Drennan - underpaid carer and unintentional psychic - is the latest in a long line of dogsbodies for the ancient, belligerent Cathal Flood. Yet despite her best efforts, Maud is becoming drawn into the mysteries concealed in his filthy, once-grand home. She realises that something is changing: Cathal, and the junk-filled rooms, are opening up to her.
With only her agoraphobic landlady and a troop of sarcastic ghostly saints to help, Maud must uncover what lies beneath Cathal's decades-old hostility, and the strange activities of the house itself. And if someone has hidden a secret there, how far will they go to ensure it remains buried?

2.5/5 Kidd is a fantastic writer but her prose sometimes gets so overpoweringly gaudy that it overshadows the plot. In The Hoarders, she has a cast of whimsical and interesting characters and plants multiple mysteries in two parallel storylines. However, everything seems to be shrouded in thick mists and the end appears too ambiguous for my liking
