In this small town, keeping secrets is a matter of life or death....

But his family’s bags are barely unpacked before their newfound peace and quiet shatters in a surge of demonic voices....

The deputy has faced his fair share of evil, but nothing quite like this. Normally the first into the fray, he worries they’ve unearthed a force not even his special training and inner-city experience can combat....

Dark Secrets

Really interesting story about a family moving to a town with a dark past full of secrets. Fast paced, cool concept, and a great ending!

3.5* - good menacing paranormal thriller

Good story – within the first 20 minutes of the audiobook, you’re able to connect the dots enough to figure out what’s going to happen. What you don’t know until the end is how/why it’s happening. I don’t mind when stories are set up this way, because I like to see how the author leads us through the story. The final reveal reminded me a lot of the old Scooby Doo cartoons; I won’t say anything farther about that, for fear of going into spoiler territory. But if you listen to the audiobook, you’ll see what I mean when you get to the ‘final reveal’ scene.

I thought that both the author and narrator knocked it out of the park with the character of the hero’s police partner. I got a bit frustrated with the hero’s reactions to certain situations, and I felt the final chapter wound things up a bit too conveniently. But overall, I have no major complaints – it was an interesting and menacing story that held my attention and kept me engaged.
The narrator was good for most of his voice characters; I’d listen to this narrator again.

Solidly Creepy Small Town Yarn

I found myself enjoying this creepy story about a smalltown with a couple hundred years of questionable history. The main character (who isn't super sharp, but a little suspension of disbelief helps like with most horror) navigates some odd behavior, and discovers the truth of the town leading to a showdown with the underlying cause of everything.

The narrator was pretty good for this style of story, aiding in the building of suspense and delivering lines with aplomb.
