The Bloodline

De: C.S. Feldman

Narrado por: Emily Durante

After years of questioning her sanity, Kat Delancey reluctantly returns to the old family manor as its legal owner, hoping desperately to silence the doubts in her mind and leave the home's tragic past behind her once and for all. But it turns out to be harder than she expected, and not just because of the estranged step-family waiting for her - because maybe Kat's mind was never playing tricks on her after all, and maybe the manor harbors a far more malevolent presence than she ever dreamed...

Rather predictable.

What annoyed me the most about this one was the overuse of the phrase, "it had to be a trick" every time something unexplained or spooky happened. Not enough spooky, either.

A Good Ghost Story…But More About The Ghost Needed

I enjoyed this book. The character development and plot line exposition really would have benefited from a gripping historical preface— perhaps the experience of one of the previous haunted family members. Instead, there really wasn’t any action until the very end, which made for a slower, not-so-interesting story in the middle of the book.

The ending was good, though. I didn’t guess what was coming, and it’s always nice to be surprised. I just wish that more details of the ‘hidden truth’ and its supernatural resolution had been shared by the author before the story’s end.

All in all, it’s a good read. I just wish I wasn’t left feeling as though some parts were missing.

It Stared out a bit slow but the end was white knuckler. Good plot, fairly good characters, and good Thrills' Enjoy it despite the slow spots.

Great plot twist

Great story and narration. Love the detail. Loved that writer surprised me with a party of the story... no clues sorry.

It was the genre I was looking for and it was free

I loved that it kept my attention. Even during the slower parts. The ending was interesting as well.

It’s just OK

The author did a just OK job at describing the details of what was happening. To me the cover of the book looks like a doll, but the book is not about a doll. It was OK though not horrible. Narrator did OK.

refreshingly origional

I really liked the whole book! I didn't know what was going to happen or ' who dun-it" it was a total suprise

Good story line

Family lineage a little confusing at first. However it became the “twist” of the plot. Kept my attention

Excellent

The story was awesome for my favorite genre is a really good ghost story! The narrator was just awesome! She really brings the story alive; we enjoyed it sooo much!

Steady Progression, Swift Unraveling

While I'm not much of a horror fan, this was a good example of an underrated book. In the beginning and most of the middle, the story had more of a suspense/psychological thriller vibe before ending into an unraveling ghost story. This was a story that captures all the senses, most particularly, of the human mind debating whether you're following instinct or descending into madness.

Narrative performance was well done.
