The Secret History, Donna Tartt.
But why do you like Devil House? I’m not familiar with it (& I’m probably not gonna look up a review over listening to your brief opinion here 🤷♂️)
Also The Secret History is fantastic!
It's by John Darnielle who is the lead singer of the Mountain Goats, who I think is a bona fide genius, and it's a horror story told in the style of metafiction. A bit difficult to describe, but actually all three of his novels are excellent. It has quite a twist to the story, it's about a true crime writer investigating a double homicide during the Satanic panic and his moral crisis.
Neat! Weird! I love the MG too. - Maybe I will check it out, thanks !
