A family reads to pass the time as a storm rages outside their house. They will soon discover a coffin that will change their lives forever.
“A page turner marred by errors”
First, let me explain; the errors I mention have nothing to do with Mr. Farana’s style of writing or subject matter, and all to do with possibly bad proofreading!
The tale itself reminded me very much of “The Monkey’s Paw”, moody, creepy and not unlike the scary movies we couldn’t turn away from as children. Scenes are set and described very well, and you can almost imagine the characters thoughts are yours. However, there is very little verbal interaction between the characters so, if you like your reads with plenty of chatter, this might not be the book for you.
If it hadn’t been for the proofreading errors I would’ve rated this book higher, as it is I would still recommend it to friends and also encourage “chatty” readers to try it out, I think you’d be pleasantly surprised.
