House of Margins

Inside the House of Margins, the truth isn't just hiding … it's waiting for you.

Anaya Sebeya is missing.

Before her disappearance, Anaya was a brilliant writer: a rising star. Invited to an exclusive writers' retreat at Günter Huis, an eerie colonial mansion on the slopes of Devil's Peak, Anaya was supposed to craft the next great African literary masterpiece-and so were four other young, emerging writers, all competing for the grand prize. But Anaya never made it home.

When a sensationalized true crime podcast about Anaya emerges, claiming to reveal everything that happened at Günter Huis, her sister Ranewa is both skeptical and furious. But with each surreal episode, Ranewa begins to piece together a truth worse than she ever could have imagined …

At Günter Huis, Anaya's nightmares consume her. Time slips away from her. Günter Huis inflicts distorted visions and terrible supernatural visitations, pushing Anaya to tell a story no one dares. But exorcising the house's endless cycle of evil requires a sacrifice that neither Anaya nor her fellows are ready to make.

"Skillfully dissects bloody colonial history with a tale of sisterly devotion, righteous anger, and sacrifice too big for one person to shoulder. Make no mistake-Tsamaase pulls no punches."-Vincent Tirado, author of You Should Have Been Nicer to My Mom
