Arriving in the Scottish highlands, Martin and Sue decide to escape their luxury hotel, heading out for a night of back-to-basics living in an abandoned shack. When a storm strikes, they find themselves stranded in the simple hut, miles from anywhere and completely isolated. As gentle bickering leads to violent arguments, Sue starts to sense they are not truly alone - especially when a deep, dark presence seems to takes hold of the pair.

Format:Kindle Edition
I found the two central characters, Susie and Martin thoroughly dislikable and for this reason I almost didn't continue the book after the first couple of chapters.
However, I persevered and I am glad that I did because as the story unfolded it became quite a compelling read.
Although it could be loosely classed as a horror story, I would say it is more of a thriller or mystery.
I was really disappointed with the ending, such a good story but a weak ending which I felt a bit let down by but then again was it? Susie was such a wet blanket of a character, maybe the ending suited her?

By I. Shepherd
Format:Paperback
Like most other reviewers, I thought that this book was OK but far from 'chilling'. A page-turner in the sense that you keep reading just to see if anything really happens. When it (eventually) does, its a bit of a let-down to be honest. Was I scared? Not at all!

I was let down by this book. The 'reviews' are a false advertisment that are plastered over the book itself.
The characters are boring. Read more

A really good first novel
I really enjoyed this book although I did not receive the actual book and went on to download the book to my kindle. I will be on the look out to see what her next book will be.

Truly dreadful novel
I picked this up in a bargain bookshop for £1.50 so that must say something. The synopsis sounded interesting so I though what the hell. Mistake! Read more

Gothic suspense
