I think this must have been a kindle daily deal that I took a punt on and when I got around to reading it, I was very pleasantly surprised by how good it is.
Like a love child of Stephen King and Grady Hendrix, this folklore/Supernatural/horror story is intelligent and very fun to read.
Kate has inherited the family campground which is also home to creatures of unspeakable horror from the other realm. When reading the book I couldn’t help thinking, why the heck does the campsite remain open to visitors when a small percentage of them end up dead, maimed or missing? Yes, Kate produces a list of rules the campers must follow to not end up this way, but still. I think it’s probably part of the ancient agreement between the family and the supernaturals (as ever I’m so behind on writing up my book reviews that I struggle to remember small details) and if you can get past that humongously reckless risk-taking of other’s lives, it’s a really good story.
It’s the first in a series, and I’m super excited to read the next instalments!
