This was basically Rebecca meets VC Andrews, which sounds a lot better than this book actually was. It kept me reading, and did a decent job of evoking emotion (mostly anger at Hannah), but it all felt too derivative of other works for me to really enjoy it. I also felt like the ending was very, very rushed and didn't wrap things up well. This wasn't a bad book and it was a quick read, but there are definitely better domestic suspense novels out there.

It’s the 1920’s Kate Moore, in a hurry to escape an ugly, poverty filled life, marries in haste to wealthy heir Matthew. The two move to his isolated family estate, Lakecrest. Kate knows very little about her new husband, but his peculiar night terrors, his overpowering mother and his sister, who seems disturbingly close to her brother, makes her believe she may have made a very rash and potentially dangerous decision in marrying Matthew. An enjoyable Gothic sure to warm up a cold night
