I read this book at the perfect time, it was raining heavily outside with a fierce wind blowing a gale in my coastal town. I sat in my armchair by the window and picked up this book. Absolutely perfect choice. This books strong suit is the intrigue and atmosphere that is apparent from the first page and doesn't let up till the end.
It has a perfect mix of supernatural and thriller elements which really puts you at the edge of your seat and the unreliable narrators really add to the fact that you as the reader begin to question what is real and whats not.
The writing is chilling at points but still manages to be fast paced but not rushed, something that can definitely happen when the writer is trying to make a profound impact. Each time I had to put this book down I was itching to pick it back up and carry on.
The characters are complex and the small town setting really adds to the vibe of the story so all in all I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a ghost story to read by the fire as we go into the winter months.
