A slow burn that continues to build in intensity which keeps you on the edge of your seat. Anytime someone got a hold of the amulet I was just sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for their demise and the demise of their loved ones to come next. A few death scenes had me wiggling in my seat. Sarah is such a sympathetic and likeable characterr.
