Welcome to Litsy!

Last review for Jan 2025!

Grace McGill is a cleaner with a difference- she sanitises & makes safe the rooms where people die alone & lie undiscovered for weeks or months. When an old widower named Thomas Agnew dies in bed & is not found for months, Grace is sad that no-one seemed to notice his absence, not even his closest neighbours. (continued)

18/23 This book was just ok. It had me gripped to begin with but lost me by the end. The premise was interesting but none of it felt realistic. There were a lot of abusive male characters but they were all portrayed the same which felt strange. I don‘t think I will bother to read more by this author.

Thank you so much , @erzascarletbookgasm , for the birthday book! 💛💛💛

This one sounds so good. I‘d been wanting to read it ever since I saw @Cathythoughts ‘ review!

This was an interesting read. Grace is not an overly likeable character but I think that really fits with the story as it leaves you questioning everything. By the end you're not sure if you can relate to her or if she just went too far. The plot is a slow and steady one. The ending was good if a little predictable. I had figured out her role and how the story would end but I think it really worked. #Netgalley 3*

Set in Glasgow, the story of Grace McGill, who cleans the homes of dead people who have not been discovered for a long time after their deaths. Who cares about them ? An unusual MC , full of surprises.. I went down some internal rabbit hole with Grace trying to understand how she works. She‘s very honest ( with the reader). Strange book and very readable. There are some interesting details in the book that will stay with me.

Hi Cindy 😘

Next up , the quote says ‘ A dark disturbing and highly original thriller‘ ‘ Haunting , twisted and compelling‘......
Well , here goes, let‘s see if it lives up to its reputation 🤞🤞🤞

This was a really interesting (but odd—in a good way) novel! Grace‘s job is to “clean” homes where a person (usually elderly) has died and gone undiscovered for weeks or months. She becomes curious when she finds similarities and digs into several of their pasts. But she too has some dark secrets and that‘s what makes this chillingly readable!
