I found it mixed a bit of science fiction, which I wasn’t expecting but this helped craft the unique story and keep readers on their toes about what was to happen next. The villains in this story hide deep in shadow and secret, and I had a hard time putting it down because I wanted so badly to uncover what was going on. At its core, the book is about sisters and family bonds, what a person is willing to do when they love another so deeply and only wish to protect them. I would suggest this to not only horror readers but also those enjoy dark domestic fiction. Gives similar vibes to Baby Teeth but with a deeper and more detailed origin story, and completely shocking revelations throughout. Thank you to NetGalley and TorNightfire for the eARC! aucune critique | ajouter une critique

"You can't escape what's in your blood... All Rob wanted was a normal life. She almost got it, too: a husband, two kids, a nice house in the suburbs. Far from her childhood home, Sundial, hidden deep in the wild Mojave Desert. But beneath the veneer, Rob is terrified for her oldest daughter, Callie, who collects tiny bones and whispers to imaginary friends. Rob sees a darkness in Callie, one that reminds her too much of the family she left behind. Running from her past has led her directly back to it -- what's buried at Sundial could never stay a secret forever, and Rob must risk one last trip out there to protect her family, and her future"-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

I had never heard of Catriona Ward, though I was intrigued right away when I saw that Stephen King had sung her praises for her previous book. I figured, if my favorite author digs her writing, I will too.
Um, digging it is an understatement! I LOVE the way Ward writes! This story is brilliant, and I was truly on the edge of my seat throughout. I never knew what was coming. Every time I thought I had something figured out, I would be proven wrong. I really enjoyed the dynamic between Rob and her daughter Callie, between Rob and her sister Jack, and I HATED Irving! (As I was meant to.)
Pick this one up and give it a read! It's a bit graphic, a bit dark.... that's what I love!!! ( )
