“Prepare to have your heartstrings clawed at in this terrifyingly exquisite story of what lengths a parent will go to in order to protect their child from being crushed to death as the walls of their loving home close in.” –T. Marie Vandelly, author of Theme Music“Suspenseful and gripping, with ratcheting tension that crawls under your skin. You Did Nothing Wrong is a dark and terrifying look at motherhood, and Drews’s mesmerizing writing is sure to keep you hooked.” – Monika Kim, author of The Eyes Are the Best Part

“CG Drews writes monsters like no other. You Did Nothing Wrong is a brilliantly tense, paranoid, masterfully wrought house of pain where no room is ever as it seems. Reader, watch your step. I loved every second.” –Dawn Kurtagich, award-winning author of The Madness and The Thorns“You Did Nothing Wrong pries open the unique anguish and joy of motherhood and shows us the insides, how such love eclipses the world. The sensory imagery is unrelenting. The emotion is beautifully raw. CG Drews has constructed an addictive story of desperation, young marriage, and family that examines how we renovate the past – and what a haunted house often really is. This novel drained my heart.” –Michael Wehunt, author of The October Film Haunt and Greener Pastures“Vicious and claustrophobic from the first page! Drews deftly manipulates the darkest innermost desires and also my blood pressure with prose rich enough to eat. An absolute snakebite of a novel.” –Neena Viel, author of Listen To Your Sister
