This was very different than other books in this genre. It had a twisty ending and left me saying "well damn" a lot ... I wasn't expecting the ending at all and it really was written very well, especially for a debut novel.
It was set up so well to be a "horror" book but in reality, it's a complete thriller and psychological.
I was entertained and would recommend for a fast read.

This is we my first book by Marlin. The plot of this book is right up my alley. A murder house with a crumbling marriage the mystery of what’s living up stairs.
There were times when I felt like I really loved Sara’s character. The way she described her thought process in great detail. There were other time where I felt like this was like every other mystery I had read and I just wanted to throw my book! But in the end it was not like any other mystery book I have heard.
Very interesting plot twist. Not sure I cared for it so much and where the story line went after.
However I did love the Suspense and of who Joe was and what was he capable of.
