Wow! This one has left me speechless! While the middle of the story did feel a little slow it was pivotal for creating the absolutely incredible ending! For my first Masterton book, I am SO impressed! This book definitely told me why he is a considered a master of Horror! Will definitely be recommending this one and reading more of his works!

It's unintentionally very funny (except for the sexual assault, which was completely unnecessary, uncomfortable, and ruined the book).
