Amazon Synopsis:
A romantic cabin getaway doesn’t go exactly as planned. High up on the windswept cliffs of Pale Peak, Faye and Felix celebrate their new engagement. But soon, a chorus of ghastly noises erupts from the nearby woods: the screams of animals, the cries of children, and the mad babble of a hundred mournful voices. A dark figure looms near the windows in the dead of night, whispering to Faye. As the weather turns deadly, Felix discovers that his terrified fiancée isn’t just mumbling in her sleep – she’s whispering back.Review:
| Knock-knock" “I suppose that if you speak long enough into the void, someone is bound to start listening.” Very dark and atmospheric, something lurking in the shadows, watching and waiting, whispering. Voices all around, calling out. Sleep talking and sleepwalking in the darkness of the night. Dreams, night terrors, the descending of minds as the darkness enters and the loss of hope begins to take over. Lives are lost as secrets are kept. I chose to read this for a reading prompt....Bookstagram Hyped. I have to admit, I can see why so many people were chilled by it. It certainly gave me the chills. I found myself with spine tingles, goose chills, and the first night of reading it, I actually had to leave a light on. The scares did not last throughout the entire book. There were definitive moments but they eventually tapered off. I did enjoy the premise, the build up to the conclusion and the inclusion of Indigenous folklore. Very captivating and unsettling, it was definitely worth reading!
