Anna has two rules for every family vacation: tread lightly and survive. But this year’s getaway—a lavish villa in the remote Italian village of Monteperso—might make that impossible. Between her passive twin, overbearing sister, judgmental mother, and self-satisfied father, Anna’s barely holding it together. Then come the strange sounds at night, the warnings from the locals, and whispers of the villa’s bloody history.
What begins as another painful family trip twists into something far darker, where ghosts and grudges blur together and no one escapes unscathed.
Jennifer Marie Thorne’s Diavola is a wickedly funny, beautifully unhinged haunted-house tale about family, isolation, and the monsters we inherit. A USA Today bestseller and Esquire pick for Best Horror Books of 2024, it’s as unsettling as it is sharp.
