This short novella packs a punch and manages to tell a story about family, friendship, and acceptance while a blood thirsty "something" stalks a family.

Set in a sprawling estate of sorts, a family gathers for the funeral of a matriarch. Among them is a woman who isn't related but is just like family as she was taken in almost as their own because of her neglectful mother.

A snowstorm buries them in cold and snow. Phones don't work, electricity is out, and their vehicles won't start. But this is the least of their problems as SOMETHING huge with wings begins hunting them one by one, leaving a blood stained path in its wake.

This story takes place on a single night and the action never ceases as the carnage ensues. Between these gruesome deaths, we'll learn more about the characters and whatever is hunting them.

This is a fantastic, short, and atmospheric novella which is perfect for a quick read alone in the dark. I highly recommend it.

A brilliant short horror story that will stay in my head for a while. The atmosphere and setting were great and I loved the pacing. The threat was always there but there were also calm moments which made the horror moments hit so much harder. It was also surprisingly emotional at some points. But again, it helped the horror more than it took away from it. The whole story left me wanting more. I want to know more about the family's back story, the house and especially the something that's haunting it. Definitely one of my favourite reads of the year.
