The Fire Child by S.K. Tremayne

4.0

I intented to burn through this book in one or two sittings, but some parts were so intense that I got exhausted. It's been really long since a book captivated me so completely, and even while it's been diffucult to keep up the pace, it's also been difficult to put the book down. It took me six days to finish 400 pages.

A spooky, psychological thriller in an almost empty, thousand year old castle on the Cornish coast. Nina, dead wife and mother, and the new wife and stepmother Rachel trying to settle in between the sorrow and ghosts of her husband David and stepson Jamie. What really happened to Nina Kerthen, and is she really coming back to haunt Carnhallow, like Jamie seems to be predicting? Or is Rachel going mad?
