Reviews
"Darkly brilliant and captivating . . . Readers who love old houses and family secrets will devour this book (as I did!). The setting itself--High Place, with its reputation for swallowing the dreams of young women--is a character in this marvelously fantastical novel, stretching from glamorous 1950s Mexican high society to the crumbling pride of an abandoned silver mine. Silvia Moreno-Garcia enthralls with this twisty tale of love and betrayal." --Yangsze Choo, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Tiger and The Ghost Bride "Tense, atmospheric, and beautifully written, Mexican Gothic will carry readers back in time to 1950s Mexico, where a dark secret looms large, insidiously winding its way through the pages. A spellbinding, suspenseful, immersive read!" --Chanel Cleeton, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Last Train to Key West "A gorgeous piece of work . . .

Moreno-Garcia is a master." --Jenn Lyons, author of The Ruin of Kings "Stylish and sinister . . . a gothic masterpiece." --Gwenda Bond, New York Times bestselling author of Stranger Things: Suspicious Minds, "Mexican Gothic terrified and fascinated me. Silvia Moreno-Garcia proves once again that she's a genre-jumping wizard, one of the most exciting and necessary authors writing today." --Charlie Jane Anders, nationally bestselling author of The City in the Middle of the Night "Darkly brilliant and captivating . . .

Synopsis
From the author of Gods of Jade and Shadow comes a reimagining of the classic gothic suspense novel, a story about an isolated mansion in 1950s Mexico--and the brave socialite drawn to its treacherous secrets. He is trying to poison me . You must come for me, Noem . You have to save me. After receiving a frantic letter from her newly-wed cousin begging for someone to save her from a mysterious doom, Noem Taboada heads to High Place, a distant house in the Mexican countryside. She's not sure what she will find--her cousin's husband, a handsome Englishman, is a stranger, and Noem knows little about the region. Noem is also an unlikely rescuer: She's a glamorous debutante, and her chic gowns and perfect red lipstick are more suited for cocktail parties than amateur sleuthing. But she's also tough and smart, with an indomitable will, and she is not afraid: Not of her cousin's new husband, who is both menacing and alluring; not of his father, the ancient patriarch who seems to be fascinated by Noem ; and not even of the house itself, which begins to invade Noemi's dreams with visions of blood and doom. Her only ally in this inhospitable abode is the family's youngest son. Shy and gentle, he seems to want to help Noem , but might also be hiding dark knowledge of his family's past. For there are many secrets behind the walls of High Place. The family's once colossal wealth and faded mining empire kept them from prying eyes, but as Noem digs deeper she unearths stories of violence and madness. And Noem , mesmerized by the terrifying yet seductive world of High Place, may soon find it impossible to ever leave this enigmatic house behind., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "It's Lovecraft meets the Brontës in Latin America, and after a slow-burn start Mexican Gothic gets seriously weird."-- The Guardian ONE OF TIME 'S 100 BEST MYSTERY AND THRILLER BOOKS OF ALL TIME - WINNER OF THE LOCUS AWARD - NOMINATED FOR THE BRAM STOKER AWARD ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, NPR, The Washington Post, Tordotcom, Marie Claire, Vox, Mashable, Men's Health, Library Journal , Book Riot, LibraryReads An isolated mansion.
