This spooky, oppressive read was very gripping, if uncomfortable, as you find yourself very immersed in an essentially abusive relationship between 2 sisters. Highly readable and tense, you find yourself pulled along by the unease, knowing there is something dark to be discovered. I have to say I hated the ending but not because it's badly executed, more because I was invested in the characters - so probably a testament to an impactful tale! Read if you dare. Thanks to Netgalley & the publishers for the opportunity.

A quick gothic read about complicated family relationships, abuse, obsession, control, and grief, all set against a creepy house that you can’t quite say WHAT is wrong. It won’t be for everyone, but for such a quick read, I felt it packed an atmospheric punch.
