"Part Fall of the House of Usher, part The Haunting of Hill House, part True Detective--in The House of Dust, debut novelist Noah Broyles drags the 19th-century Southern Gothic legacy kicking and screaming into the 21st century. Set in a rural Tennessee town, a true-crime reporter finds new meaning in an old house--a house with generations of secrets and plans he has yet to discover."--Provided by publisher.
