A dead space between two walls.

A sealed cellar.

A child's face glimpsed at a window.


Every house hides secrets.

But some secrets are far darker than others.

More than a million readers have discovered the terrible truth behind these strange houses.

Now it's your turn.

PRAISE FOR UKETSU


'Part Rubik's Cube, part Russian doll, part kaleidoscope and altogether irresistible. Strange Pictures is heady, giddy, genre-blurring stuff and so fizzy with invention and possibility that I almost pity the next novel I read' - A.J. Finn, author of The Woman in the Window

'A superlative puzzle made of multiple parts that interconnect in unexpected ways, told inventively through pictures and text. Every twist and turn steepens the sense of foreboding. Original, intricate and deeply unsettling. I've never read anything like it' - Alex Pavesi, author of Eight Detectives

'Absolutely loved this clever little banger. An addictive murder mystery that unfolds like pointillism on the page: only when you reach the end, step back and view the bigger picture does each of its parts click into place. Exceptional!' - Alice Slater, author of Death of a Bookseller

'An intricately woven, at times unsettling, but always mesmerising piece of work' - Ian Moore, author of Death and Croissants

Uketsu is an enigmatic Youtuber and author, specializing in horror and mystery. He always appears in videos wearing a white mask and black body stocking, with his voice digitally distorted. His true identity is unknown, despite the fact that he is now Japan's bestselling author, with millions of copies of his mysteries sold and translations appearing in thirty countries around the world. Strange Pictures is also available and Strange Buildings is forthcoming from Pushkin Vertigo.
