"This book is a great spooky thriller/mystery. I loved the characters and the setting. I have read several books by this author. This is my favorite so far."

"I couldn't put this book down. It has multiple characters that talk but the author does a great job of making it easy to follow along with. Most books that I have read end on a cliff hanger but I am so glad that all of my questions about Katie, Sonia, CeCe, Roberta, and Fiona got answered before the end of the book. I definitely recommend reading this book if you are looking for a book that you won't put down until you're done."
