Eerie

De: Blake Crouch, Jordan Crouch

Narrado por: Karen Chilton

From newcomer Jordan Crouch and Blake Crouch, author of the runaway best seller Run, comes Eerie, a chilling, gothic thriller in the classic tradition of The Shining and The Sixth Sense.

Trapped inside a house

On a crisp autumn evening in 1980, seven-year-old Grant Moreton and his five-year-old sister Paige were nearly killed in a mysterious accident in the Cascade Mountains that left them orphans.

With a frightening power

It's been 30 years since that night. Grant is now a detective with the Seattle Police Department and long estranged from his sister. But his investigation into the bloody past of a high-class prostitute has led right to Paige's door, and what awaits inside is beyond his wildest imagining.

Over anyone who enters

His only hope of survival and saving his sister will be to confront the terror that inhabits its walls, but he is completely unprepared to face the truth of what haunts his sister's brownstone.

Not my favorite

I generally love the books by Blake Crouch, but this story seemed to start out with a great premise, but fell flat at the end. The narrator was not a good fit for this story. Her tone, while easy to listen to, makes the characters shallow and whiny. There is no emotional attachment, and more importantly, there is nothing to indicate fear.

Suspenseful

Enjoyable read. Not my favorite Blake Crouch book, but still worth listening to.. Ending was interesting, but somehow unsatisfying. ~JTC~

Amazing!......Until

Would you listen to Eerie again? Why?

Yes, I think that it was a very interesting book with dark secrets. It was very suspenseful until the really bizarre ending. It wasn't a very satisfactory ending for me because of how strangely everything was explained. the narrator was very talented and played all the characters well but the ending was just didn't do it for me. Other Crouch books are better and this is possibly my least favorite but I still recommend it.

Very very strange

I wouldn't discourage anyone from reading this book, but it's just so odd. In typical Crouch fashion, he reroutes you in the middle of the story to a direction you didn't see coming. But it's almost like someone wrote the first half of the book and another person wrote the other half. Unlike his other books, you can't really imagine "what if this really did happen?" Instead I found myself thinking, "did they go back and add the father character at the last minute just so they could use the
ending they wanted?"

Lacking meaning, message, or purpose

I will forget this plot and characters within a week. The story did not flow. It drifted like everyone was tripping on mushrooms. It was hard to follow what was happening. The narrator sounded the same for all the voices so that made things even more confusing. The ending was not satisfactory either.
