Product Description

Product Description

When a series of shocking suicides rock the small town of Millingham, Massachusetts, the authorities are left with a single burning question. Why are all the victims gouging their eyes out?

Only seventeen-year-old Lysander Shore knows these aren't suicides at all. There's a serial killer stalking the people of Millingham. One that murders at will and never leaves a trace.

Soon, the long trail of bodies leads Lysander to a dark secret. One that traces back to a witch's trial and execution 350 years ago. The deeper he digs, the more he realizes the victims aren't nearly as random as they seem. In fact, the killer has a list and Lysander is next.

Fascinating Story 3 Jan 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
This was a book that, after starting it, I simply did not want to put it down. The story was really interesting and only got more intriguing and imaginative as the novel progressed. I was impressed by the twists and turns that sprung up in different places throughout the novel but, on top of it all, I was more intrigued and interested in the idea and message behind the novel. It was such a unique topic and I found myself marvelling at the idea and just loving the imagination behind it all.

I'm trying to sound vague so as to avoid spoilers, but I just found it really thought-provoking and that is definitely a good thing to get from a book. It was, in spite of this, an easy read that only got confusing towards the end as it was hard to tell who was who but it all righted itself quickly enough and became more readable.

I really liked the characters in this novel. I especially like the protagonist Lysander as he seemed rounded and was always hiding something from the reader and the people in Millingham. He had a background that he doesn't want people to find out about and this just adds to the mystery of the story, leading to curiosity which leads to further page-turning. I also liked Samantha who had been through a traumatic incident with her mother but I loved her drive. She wasn't willing to accept things as they were given to her and, despite being completely scared at times, she didn't let that stop her from taking control and doing things her way to get the answers that she needed. She was a well-rounded character that was thoroughly enjoyable to read.

This book is a horror/thriller/mystery type story and is definitely not for the faint-hearted. It does get down with the gritty dark parts but it does them well. The antagonist seemed so real and interesting, and utterly terrifying at points as well. Hayes manages to create a world so real around the town of Millingham and really pulls the reader in, letting them get lost within the words on the page. His omnipresent narrative worked really well with this type of novel and made the story that little bit more frightening. The one thing I would have liked to see was a bit of the story from the antagonist's POV. It would have been intriguing to see what they were thinking, but that's just a small thing and the novel was absolutely fine without it.

All in all, this was a novel that I really enjoyed and would recommend to anyone who likes stories that hold the potential to be extremely scary. It's not for the feint of heart but it's certainly one to be read if you like the kind of story that brings you up short with questions you never even thought to ask. A good, interesting read.

Great creepy read! 5 Dec 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
This book is worth a lot more than the .86p I paid for it. The cover and description made this a no brainer for me and I'm happy to say it was brilliant. Finished it in two sittings. Sucks you in right from the first page and doesn't let go. Very gripping and creepy. It's gory too in parts, but it fits the story so I wasn't put off. Highly recommended for fans of supernatural horror.

Difficult to review, overall I enjoyed it, but the writing didn't shine or fully immerse me in the story. I have no great specific criticism but the writing style didn't stand out in any particular way.
It's not a bad book, or I wouldn't have finished it, some very nice ideas within the story.

Worth reading it just didn't sparkle for me.
