Wow! I received this ARC from "Arcs Around the Library" and couldn't have chosen better! Due for release on 4/7/15, it is destined to be an immediate bestseller. " In this enthralling and atmospheric debut suspense novel, one young family's dream of a better life is about to become a nightmare". This is evocative of Stephen King at his best...without all the foul language. The characters are well drawn, realistic and empathy inspiring. The plot is clever, peppered with Revolutionary War era letters and anecdotes, and sinister enough to cause the reader to double-check locks, avoid shadows, leave lights burning, and beware real estate bargains. Mental illness, bullying, faith, sacrifice, and what comprises family are themes carefully and craftily woven into the tale of terror.
"Better and easier were almost never the same thing."
