My Review:

A Flicker in the Dark is an engaging read, ensuring your mind is scrambling with questions of who it was, why they were doing what they were, and how. The book allowed you to become a detective in your own right, trying to piece the evidence and story together while you continually flip pages to learn more.

Full of twists and turns, introductions of new characters and theories make this an unputdownable read. Stacy Willingham filled pages with such detailed descriptions you feel as though you are watching a story unfold with your own eyes.
Highly recommend. Look forward to reading her next book: All The Dangerous Things.
