Four "Supernatural Suspense" Stars
A small taste of what lies within:
Two timelines - early 1900's and Present Day
Alice along with her two daughters, Ruthie and Fawn are living in a house that has been around for over a hundred years. Mysterious things slowly seem to happen within the house and then one day Ruthie comes home to find that her mother has disappeared. The mystery of the disappearance is wrapped around a woman that lived in the house a hundred years ago and as Ruthie tries to find out what happened to her mother she ends up digging into the past realizing that something from back then is responsible for her mother's disappearance.
That is about all I can hand out with a small taste without giving away spoilers so if you want to know more then go read this book!
Thoughts:
This book was deeply mysterious as the author goes deep into the one timeline from the 1900's as there is lots of backstory on those characters and then goes deep into the present day with the mother's disappearance. The story stays at a steady pace throughout the book. I did not become bored with any of the story as the author goes into a lot of detail within both timelines. I would consider this story to be a historical mystery supernatural suspense story more than I would actual horror. There was more of a suspense and mystery feel to the book with the supernatural weaved into the story.
I loved all the characters in this book as I made my way through the story line and was pleased that the story kept the mystery of what was happening to almost the end of the book. All in all I enjoyed the story. This was my second book by this author and look forward to reading more of her work in the future.
