Thriller Psychological
In this haunting debut novel—perfect for fans of
Iain Reid, Jeff VanderMeer, and Julia Armfield—a
loyal employee at a collapsing theme park questions the
recent death of a celebrity visitor, the arrival of strange
new guests, her boyfriend’s erratic behavior, and
ultimately her own sanity.
Delphi has spent years
working at a vast and iconic theme park in California after
fleeing childhood trauma in her rural hometown. But after
the disturbing death of a beloved Hollywood starlet on the
park grounds, Delphi is tasked with shuttering The Park for
good.
Meanwhile, two siblings with ties to The
Park exchange letters, trying to understand why people who
work there have been disappearing. Before long, they learn
that there’s a reason no one is meant to see behind
The Park’s curtain.
What happens when The
Park empties out? And what happens when Delphi, who seems
remarkably at one with The Park, is finally forced to leave?
At once a novel about the uncanny valley, death
cults, optical illusions, and the enduring power of fantasy,
Reiche’s debut is a mind-bending teacup ride through
an eerily familiar landscape, where the key to it all is
what happens at the end of every day.
