I really liked this book, my first Douglass Clegg read. Nemo, Brooke, and Bruno Raglan are reunited at their childhood home of Hawthorne on Burnely Island after their father was brutally murdered in the smokehouse where they played The Dark Game when they were children. As they try to solve the mystery of their father's murder they discovery many hidden secrets at Hawthorne and many suppressed memories are revealed. I highly recommend this book, a chilling, supernatural thriller.
