Not what I was thinking and hoping for.
I liked the supernatural elements and the mystery behind the disappearances; however, I feel as though it didn't help with the storytelling. The ghosts felt like a placeholder, only used when needed. There wasn't really a resolution to the ghosts–again, used when needed.
I knew pretty on who might've dunnit. You would like to be thrown off your tracks, but at that point there wasn't an additional clue that could've thrown me off. Once it appeared, it was like I knew.
I guess I was shock at the ending with the twist. But the relationship could have been without.
High hopes with little-to-no rewards.

Loved this! The perfect amount of spooky but most a really propulsive and compelling mystery.

Another great thriller!
This story is told from 2 perspectives. One in the present from Carly's point of view and the other in the past, in the 80's, telling her aunt's (Viv) story.
The way this is unraveled is by giving us some clues reagarding Viv's disappearance in Carly's chapters and right after, we are given more details from Viv's telling of the events. It can be annoying for some, but it woked for me because of the very engaging writing style.
The story is spooky, atmospheric, suspenseful, it has everything to give you goosebumps.
Now with 2 5star books, Simone St. James has become an auto buy author for me; must check out her previous books also.
