Five "Chills and Thrills" Stars
Nail Biting Suspense!
A small taste of what lies within:
1950 - Vermont - Idlewild Hall
A boarding school that is possibly haunted and four roomies that become close friends (Cece, Sonia, Katie and Roberta) and what they each have to endure while living there along with the ghost of a girl named Mary Hand who wanders the boarding school halls.
2014 - Vermont - Idlewild Hall
Fiona Sheridan is a journalist but she has always wanted to know what happened to her sister, Deb that had died at Idlewild Hall. She decides to dig deep into the boarding school to find out what took place there and why it is considered to be haunted. Fiona feels that though justice was served as her sister's boyfriend was convicted of the crime something just seems off about the whole thing and she will do whatever it takes to dig deep into a long buried past to find out what really happened long ago!
That is about all I can give on a small taste so if you want to know more than go read this book!
Thoughts:
This was another great book by this author filled with intrigue, suspense, tension and a haunting. I felt that the story was a little slow at first with background world building but the book follows two timelines from 1950 to 2014 and your dropped into 1950 with the happenings of the four friends then dropped back into 2014 with the journalist character, Fiona as she tries to track down old leads from the 50's.
The pace becomes faster the more I read of the book and there were some twists and turns along the way. There is one twist near the end of the book that I wasn't expecting and it shocked me out of my shoes! This is my fourth book by this author and looking forward to reading more of her work.
