"Daddy, there's a man in our room..."

Alfie wakes one night to find his twin daughters at the foot of his bed, claiming there's a shadowy figure in their bedroom. When no such thing can be found, he assumes the girls had a nightmare.

He isn't surprised that they're troubled. Grief has made its home at Hart House: nine months ago, the twins' mother Pippa died unexpectedly, leaving Alfie to raise them alone. And now, when the girls mention a new imaginary friend, it seems like a harmless coping mechanism. But the situation quickly develops into something more insidious. The girls set an extra place for him at the table. They whisper to him. They say he's going to take them away…

Alfie calls upon Julia―Pippa's sister and a psychiatrist―to oust the malignant tenant from their lives. But as Alfie himself is haunted by visions and someone watches him at night, he begins to question the true character of the force that has poisoned his daughters' minds, with dark and violent consequences.

Whatever this "friend" is, he doesn't want to leave. Alfie will have to confront his own shameful secrets, the dark past of Hart House, and even the bounds of reality―or risk taking part in an unspeakable tragedy.

A horror debut perfect for readers of Catriona Ward's The Last House on Needless Street and The Spite House by Johnny Compton, this emotional, hair-raising story will grip you from the first page, and won't let you go"


B-RANDS REVIEW: 4/5 DARK SHADOWS






Hello Fellow Bookworms!


Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my page and check out my latest book review!


This book I read this shortly after Halloween following into early November. I am so glad I didn't start this book during or before Halloween because it was creepy. I kid you not I thought I had it all figured out but the book kept suggesting I switch my perspective and think about other possibilities. This book had me feeling crazy there for a good minute. I didn't want to put this book down. The only bad thing I have to say about this book is the cover is a little deceiving. I don't understand what it had to do with the book. I get scared and creepiness yes but tell me what you think about it. I want to get into more depth but without spoiling it for you. Just stop by and leave a comment on what you think! Thanks so much :)

Would you believe your child if they said someone was in their room at night?

  • UM YES WE'RE LEAVING BYE

  • No, a child's imagination has no end


"Since a good book can work wonders in alleviating stress and depression, it’s pretty obvious why people who read more are more self-confident and happy."
