One House Left by Vincent Ralph
5.0
“Ready or not. Whatever you do. The Hiding Boy is coming for you.”
I have been exploring more YA horror lately, but I didn't want this one to end!
It's about loyalty, and friendship, and tricksters. There's almost always a trickster in a horror story and if it's done right, you will be shocked. Not fooled, maybe, but still...shocked. And this one was done right!
Nate is the new kid in town, trying very hard to be invisible, when he's spotted by Max. Max is the unofficial leader of the Hellhole Chasers, a trio that is on a mission to verify or disprove urban legends. Nate and his family are running from one particularly nasty string of murders connected to their former residence on Cherry Tree Lane,. famously known as Murder Road. Now the trio is a quartet and some local urban legends are coming true.
The book is divided into three parts, and the second part slips into paranormal happenings. While I'm not a fan of paranormal, this section had the most vivid and horrific descriptions. but it was necessary for the emotional denouement of part three. Well emotional for me, but maybe I just had something in my eye.
I recommend you read this book with the lights on. And remember..."he's coming for you."
Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for an advance reader's copy.
