As a lover of the books by Michael Koryta, I just had to give this a try since Scott Carson is his pen name. I honestly have never read a book quite like this. To say that there is a supernatural aspect to it is an understatement. It is quite spooky! The characters are very well developed and different chapters are told in he person of different characters but it all blends together beautifully. At the beginning I thought the book dragged but then it became intense and that intensity continued throughout the rest of the book. I think it safe to describe this book as a suspense thriller or possibly to put it in the horror genre.

I won't go into a description of the book itself because there are plenty of those available. I will say that for someone who normally doesn't read anything paranormal, this book held my interest and I'm giving it 4 stars!

Poorly written! I tried to stick with this for half way but it was so slow draggy and getting nowhere but repeat repeat

I might try another by Carson as I thought this might be a good story but I can't suffer through pages and pages of descriptions or thoughts, I skipped so many pages just get on with the story but it moved so slow and draggy I finally gave up
