A review by blodeuedd
The Coffin Path by Katherine Clements

3.0

17th century. The Moors. A house that is said to be haunted and a stone circle where witches and the devil play. I had no idea what to believe, but something was sure going on.

Mercy loves the land, her sheep, her life. She is content as it is. But her dad is loosing it and then things start to happen. Just as they have happened not everyone living there before them. All who have met violent ends.

She goes on with her life. It is lambing season, then it's shearing season, then the grass needs to be taken in for the winter. All while things happen. Dark things. Little things. There are footsteps. There are shadows...or is it just imagination?

I liked that it took place when it did. Cos then everyone could talk about witches and the devil. Ignorant fools! But, something dark is there. And even as I close the book I do not know what. There is just true darkness in the shadows. And I would have left that place years ago.

I enjoyed it and I liked that it gave things away little by little.

One of those horror stories where you do not know what to expect and as you turn the last page, you know, you know you are not alone and you get chills down your spine. Then the darkness begins.
