REVIEW

This is a new favorite book for me!
Where do I start??
Already! By the time I got to read this book! It's was going on season of Halloween and day of the dead.
My kit for this book was a bitter chocolate skull and my cat sitting beside asking yourself: Why this girl is not eating his chocolate and takes hours with that device? (aka my smarthphono)
It was a great story, it is ok, to me it put me a book of suspense and paranormal and I disconnect from the earth about 3 hours (or 4 hours as I said the Kindle App).
For starters we have Jack Tremont, husband and father, with a past he wants to forget and to do this, start a different life in Prescott City, in western Maryland that will be the background for the start of certain events that Jack not expect to live.
New people to welcoming , appearances and disappearances of people in the area, could not be more than the beginning of the nightmare that Jack will live when one of his daughters, Sarah, disappears. The suspect: Nate Huckley, here the great part of the book is that you can delve into his mind and know what the hell is going on it! That to me was great.
The author takes you through detailed scenarios, carrying out to every character involved in a very fluid way. From start to finish you have engaged, asking what next? what the hell? ok, I know, I really enjoy this type of reading, where you do not know that you will face further on or that paranormal surprises await you in this journey of reading. And more if the characters have a defined profile. There is nothing to will escape to the author.
This is one of those books that definitely fans of this genre should not miss, your emotions are going to be from one place to another and when you finish you will need a great moment to breathe (or in my case finish my chocolate).
My favorite and unexpected character: Buddy
I received an e-copy in exchange of a honest review
PD: My stars: 5
