Reviewed by AnnaGreat book...I really enjoyed the book, but I can't say I was totally scared to death...should have probably read the book alone, in the dark, during a storm and my scare level would probably have been much higher. I enjoyed the characters, they were well rounded and believable. Its a real page turner because you simply have to know what happening next. Defo a book that will be re-read in the autumn ;) ((I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest opinion))
