All her life Rebecca has received letters from a mysterious stranger controlling her life. Her life was already riddled with sadness from the loss of her parents, her sister, and both her aunt and cousin getting hurt. Now in order to save her family from this man she must leave her home. Homeless and alone she doesn't think her life could get any worse, but the stranger isn't done yet.
I received a physical copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. I really enjoy stalker type books, especially when there is a murder element so I was intrigued with this one. I didn't really have any big surprises during it. There were a few twists during the pages, but I expected them. I don't know if I just read too much -ha!- or if it's been done a lot but there is that.
I don't feel like knowing detracted. It's kind of like watching a movie you've seen before. You know what is going to happen. You can see where it is leading, but you're just along for the ride. That's how I felt with this. There are some really sad parts in the book and people die. Multiple people. And the guy is completely insane. The thing is is that he's a believable insane.
This is something that could realistically happen and those are probably the most frightening books. Realistic books have a scare factor that sci-fi and apocalyptic books can't hope to achieve because yeah they're great. Don't get me wrong, I love those books immensely. At the same time I don't think of that as something right around the corner that could happen at any time. Books like this is.
I don't know that I had a favorite character in this book. I will say that there is a lot of hope for this book. It's not perfect. It needs attacked by an editor. But, once it is cleaned up it is a good story that has a lot of potential.
