The Sentinel by Jeffrey Konvitz

 


🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Spooky Supernatural Suspense" Stars


Who or What Lives in the Brownstone? 

A small taste of what lies within:

Allison Parker is a model that would love to live in an apartment in Manhattan and she gets her wish when she sees that there is an apartment for rent in the paper - an old brownstone. After she moves in though things kind of go wonky as her neighbors are kind of on the bizarre side and she has learned that an old priest lives on the top floor but no one seems to know much about him.  

As time moves on things go from mysterious to strange when Allison learns from the real estate agent that there is no one else living in the building and there are no neighbors except for the priest! 

What happened to the neighbors? Were they there or in her imagination? What is up with the priest that lives alone on the top floor? Is the brownstone haunted? 

No spoilers here so if you want to know more then go read this book!

Thoughts:

This was my first time reading this author and I have had this book on my tbr list for a long time. Decided to finally step into it as the cover alone just creeps me the hell out and I knew that this story was going to be a doozy and I was right! The whole book was a suspenseful horror mystery and I had a hard time putting this book down!

I kept wanting to read it and sometimes I would read late into the night. The author just wrapped me up with the spookiness of the story and sometimes the pace of the book was fast as I would keep flipping through the pages of my kindle trying to figure out the mystery of what was happening to Allison!

There is a sequel to the book that I need to read at some point plus there is a movie that I have never seen either. Looking forward to eventually stepping into the sequel and if you want a book that is going to fuel your insomnia then this is the book!
