HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS AND REVIEW

Carys had inherited the farmhouse that she had grown up in. I can’t say that it was a family home. It was a place that her abusive father and God-fearing jealous mother brought her up. Her mother had died years ago and her father recently but she had returned to the farm after his funereal to clear the house and do what needed to be done now he was gone forever.

Carys’ husband and their two teenage boys had come with her but the past wouldn’t stay in the past. Carys found a bundle of bones, a tiny skull that belonged to a baby and so the police had to be summoned. Soon she could feel herself being thrown back into horrific memories of her own childhood and that of local children that had gone missing and still not been found. The nights began to be the thing she dreaded most of all as sleep paralysis took over and The Shadow Man haunted her nightmares.

The story becomes much darker and more disturbing, impossible to put down as the police take over to try and find some sort of closure for the families all these years later. The story drops back to the past as the horror is replayed. Oh boy! I have never felt so helpless reading a story. This you need to read yourself. There are stories within stories.

This isn’t an open and shut case. This is twisted and knarled, explosive and heartbreaking. An absolute huge must read!
