Wow. This is the perfect mix of homages to the horror greats and a new voice for horror. If you like anything by Mike Flanagan (haunting of hill house) you’ll LOVE this book. It reminded me of all the best grief based horror (pet cemetery, hereditary, etc) It is streamlined and very masterfully written. I was hooked from page 1 until the end.
