SOMETHING IS STIRRING IN THE HEART OF ILLINOIS
Cousins and writing partners Jane and TJ have carved out new lives for themselves amidst the skyscrapers of Chicago, a far cry from their isolated hometown of Ketchum.
Neither has returned since the night TJ’s first crush, Evie, disappeared into the woods in a flash of amber light. Along with Jane’s childhood friend-turned-stalker, Lincoln, they were the last people to see her alive.
When TJ’s writer’s block threatens both their careers, they agree to attend their high school reunion in the hopes of reigniting her creative inspiration.
But Lincoln is still waiting. He remembers the night that claimed Evie like it was yesterday and the woods have been whispering to him ever since. As Jane and TJ arrive home, the voices call to him again, hissing three solitary words…
She is here.
Review:
I struggled from the beginning with this book. The description of the creepers going down her throat was so graphic that I struggled from there on in. I don’t usually have a problem with thrillers but this one was so well written I felt like I was there and it was happening to me. Unfortunately I have had to put the book down until I can try again with it another time. Thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to review this book.
