Sylvie Mason grew up in an
unconventional household. She is the
good younger daughter: obedient, thoughtful and a believer in her parents and
their ideals. Ruth is the problematic
older daughter: argumentative, disobedient and a skeptic, to put it mildly. Sylvie and Ruth's
parents help the haunted; they aid families dealing with demonic and ghostly haunting
of both places and people.
One night Sylvie’s parents are
called out to the local church in the middle of a snowstorm. Sylvie is bundled up, sitting in the car waiting
for them to exit the sanctuary. Then
she hears two loud noises. She runs into
the church and sees her parents, dead, and then all goes dark for her as
well. This is the story of what Sylvie
saw that night and how her testimony will seal the fate of a former client of
her parents. It is also a story about
belief and the power, both healing and destructive, of family.
This is the perfect read to get you
in the mood for Halloween. It’s a creepy
and suspenseful thriller fans of Michael Koryta will most likely enjoy!
