Chargement... The Winslow Incidentpar Elizabeth Voss
   Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.  lrhubble | Sep 20, 2014 |   Borrowed The Winslow Incident from the library. I stopped at page 102. Its story just didn't grab me enough to want to keep reading. Too many "main" characters; seven, including the main character, introduced in the first 25 pages. Not enough depth to the characters or Winslow (setting), at least not at the point where I stopped. flying_monkeys | Apr 13, 2013 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique

a tale of ghosts, madness & other strange happenings -- What would you do if everyone around you went instantly, inexplicably mad? Welcome to Winslow, Washington, where all anyone expects is another ordinary summer: tourists taking the ghost town tour, locals cooling off in Ruby Creek, the carnival in Prospect Park, warm donuts from Rhone Bakery and cold beer in the Buckhorn Tavern. Nothing unusual. That's because residents here have always done well at keeping order, keeping secrets and keeping the past buried. Until now. First, the animals go strange. Then townsfolk begin losing their minds. And that's when the ghosts come out to haunt. Inspired by true events. Set in a small town hidden in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. THE WINSLOW INCIDENT-a present-day thriller informed by historical accounts of entire villages gone mad. What really triggered the mass hysteria of the Salem witch trials? Why did residents of Pont-Saint-Esprit suddenly lose their minds? And how does it feel to be the last sane person in town? Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This is a suspenseful story with some romance. The plot of this one takes some fantastic twists and turns and will have readers guessing just what is going to happen next and who will be the next to be affected. The story line builds the suspense and doesn’t stop until the end when everything is revealed. The character are fascinating and seeing how each one reacts to what is happing in the small town makes for very interesting reading. With the heroine being a teenager this is for young adults but anyone would find the plot line entertaining and will be pulled into the story and readers will keep turning the pages just to see where it will all end. This is one suspense not to miss. Readers will not be disappointed with this one at all. (
