A review by krobart
The Poison Tree by Erin Kelly

3.0

What starts out as a seemingly ordinary novel about a young woman who makes a fascinating, exotic new friend builds slowly to the macabre in The Poison Tree by Erin Kelly. This is not a tradition mystery, but more the foreboding story of how several characters’ lives are changed irrevocably by the incidents of a careless summer in 1993. Well written and absorbing, the book slowly builds from normalcy to a sense of dread.
