The book was interesting and kept me guessing. The author using third person threw me off, but that’s just me having a preference for first person. It made me feel disconnected from the characters. I like the mystery involved and the articulation of the storyline and plot. Would recommend to a young YA audience!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Always enjoy reading books from Joel A. Sutherland, he has a great style for a horror novel and it's always a good read. The characters were what I expected and glad I got to read about them. It lives up to the "The Haunted meets House of Salt and Sorrows" and from other books by the author. Can't wait for more.

"You don’t even need to say anything. Just nod. But listen. If you want me back, if you need anything—anything—you call Dorcas, and I’ll return. But for now, for this to be only happening in your mind, in your sleep, you nod your head. And you’ll wake up in bed. And this will be a bad dream, slow at first to forget, but it will fade, it will be gone, and then . . . ”

I enjoyed this story of a family fallen victim to a witch named Dorcas. I liked the interaction between the sisters and there were definitely some creepy moments. This is a good book for a younger horror fan.
