I wish I could say this was a love story and stop there, but it's much, much more.

Ian meets Priss as a young child ... right after his mother kills his baby sister. Ian has always been a lonely child and when his mother is committed to an asylum, things become worse. He is teased and tormented at school, day after day.... until Priss makes them pay for hurting her new friend.

Ian soon learns that when Priss is unhappy ... terrible things happen

When Ian meets Megan, Priss is not happy ...not happy at all.

This was such a disturbing book for me to read. It has all the great elements ... a great story, well-written, a deep dark mystery to get lost in. It's also a story of revenge. Maybe it's a ghost story ... and maybe it isn't. Ian and Priss and Megan are all so perfectly fleshed out. They come to life with this author's descriptions.

It is Ian's voice who tells the story ... it is stated in the book ..I believe that you believe. That just about sums it up

I have read several Lisa Unger books .. this is my favorite.

Strongly recommend this one to anyone who likes psychological elements with their reading.

5 Stars with no hesitation.
