Review ""Blending domestic and serial-killer thrillers (with an unreliable narrator, to boot), Cameron skillfully wrangles all these elements into a strong page-turner with a compelling main character in Izzy. Recommend this one to readers who enjoyed Riley Sagers Home before Dark (2020) and Lisa Ungers The Red Hunter (2017)."" -- Christine Tran - Booklist"A deep plunge into a haunted psyche slowly stretched to the breaking point. More, please." -- Kirkus"Cameron slowly revs up the suspense to an exciting crescendo in this intriguing game of cat and mouse." -- Publishers Weekly"Cameron handles the narrative like a pro. Isabel is such a substantial character, with her painful history and complex interior life, that she dominates the story [...] Like her main character, Cameron has a Gothic sensibility that complements her uncanny sense of place. Her descriptions of the Lodge, the coach house and the extensive grounds of the estate have a 19th-century vibe, suggesting skeletons in the closet and ghosts in the wings. For all her mastery of the spooky trappings of suspense, Cameron also respects another, more fundamental element of the form — plotting." -- Marilyn Stasio - The New York Times Review Quote "Cameron slowly revs up the suspense to an exciting crescendo in this intriguing game of cat and mouse."
