This is my second book from this author and it was a far better read. Having said that I wish it was edited a bit. I know it's only around 300 odd pages but wow are there so many “huh? I don't remember that item being there” or “did I hear something?” moments where the author is trying to amp up the suspense. By 150th time I'm just waiting for the reveal.

Rowan was also a very confusing character. Shes flawed but also a bit ambivalent; happy and caring one minute while brimming with rage the next. By the end, my only reaction to the twist was “oh okay”. I think I'd had enough of Rowan.

Nevertheless a creepy suspenseful read.
