"Great book"

Ty
"This is the book that got me back into the mystery-thriller genre. There is a bit of paranormal things in here, too! Such a cozy read. I stay for the story-telling that is just right for a campfire night, the complex father-son issues prevalent in the characters, and the mystery itself. Awesome. That’s all. Just awesome."
"I thought this was very good, creepy enough but not too much. Definitely a thriller and the way it’s told keeps you on the edge of your seat! "
