Creepy, scary, terror! Everything I hate in a book since I get anxiety attacks! BUT, I couldn't put it down!! My eyes were glued from beginning to end and I had dreams about it. It's just not my genre, but what a ride I had!!

This is a great creepy, don't go out at night type of story.
Told from different points of view and time periods but the story blends together and keeps its momentum till the VERY END. If you want to think, feel and hope this creepy book is for you.

Wow! Such a creepy, unique, mesmerizing book! Told from different perspectives in different timelines from the diary of Sara (who was supposedly brutally murdered and rumored to haunt the town) in 1908 to the present day when mysterious vanishings bring a varied group seeking answers in Sara's old family farmhouse together. A perfect spooky winter read!

Chilling from the beginning, sometimes horrifying, this will keep you on the edge of your seat. And if you're reading late at night, will keep you far under the covers of the bed. Do the dead really come back? And if they can, what happens? Just because you die does it mean you're gone? This book follows different generations with the same questions. Well written, it reads quickly.
