A novel that brings the uncanny into the present
“The Villa” relocates the classic haunted house motif into a contemporary, atmospherically dense narrative world. The press categorizes the novel as Gothic horror with black humor and strong tension; at the same time, Markus Heitz himself emphasizes the connection between horror, music, and psychological unease.
