Ten years ago Sarah, her cousin Davey, her boyfriend Tyler and 2 other friends almost lost their lives the night they were visiting haunted houses. Davey was adamant that there was something evil in that house and no one should go in. Being teenagers, all but Sarah and Davey entered anyway.

They were spooked by the costumes, the realistic mutilated victims, the bodies at the table with their heads 'on' the table. By the time they realized this was real, Sarah and Davey had entered and got everybody out. The escaped convict who was really good with a knife lay dead and his partner in crime was assumed dead.

All the friends suffering from one form or another of PSTD all went their own separate ways and rarely spoke to each other again.

Today one of Sarah's friends who shared the haunted house experience was found murdered..her body in several pieces. A reunion of the remaining friends who shared a horrific night are afraid that they are all being targeted.

A copycat? The partner has come back to exact revenge?

It's a sorry reunion for Sarah and Tyler. Neither of them stopped loving the other. Tyler must do whatever he can to protect Sarah from the evil that is stalking them all.

Heather Graham does a bang up job with her Romantic Suspense books. I have never been disappointed in the blend of suspense and romance.

The characters lend an air of credibility and I enjoy how they all relate to each other, especially after a very long estrangement. There are twists and turns and a few surprises before getting to the exciting ending.

Many thanks to the author / HarperCollins for the ARC of Out Of The Darkness. Opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.
