A review by songcatchers
Midnight on Beacon Street by Emily Ruth Verona

4.0

'The Fog. Elm Street. No good can come from running upstairs. If nothing else, movies have taught her that.'

It's October 15, 1993, and Amy is about to have one hell of a night babysitting! The tension builds so slowly, and then bam! It has a great ending. I didn't fully appreciate it until I finished because the whole story is so much better than the sum of its slowly moving parts.

'He might as well be little Tommy Doyle asking Laurie Strode about the boogeyman in Halloween. Ben stares at her expectantly. Only she doesn’t know what to tell him.'
