The house sits stoic and slightly askew off the coast of Raven’s Head. Its off-kilter windows are both charming and disorienting, its walls of overstuffed bookshelves both comforting and claustrophobic. When Leo and Lark Parrish arrive at their vacation home with their parents, their mother’s idea of a quintessential Maine getaway seems like both a blessing and a curse. Lark—a novice novelist—can’t wait to find inspiration at the end of a fog-entombed pier. She’ll forgive her mother for forcing her into this non-negotiable holiday, but only if she can find her muse among a lapping, rocky shore. And while being trapped in a house with no means of escape is the last thing Leo would consider a good time—especially with parents on the precipice of divorce—he can’t help but wonder if maybe the change of scenery will help him shake off the chains of sadness brought on by the death of his closest friend.
But what starts off as a relatively benign family trip quickly turns menacing. Leo finds himself face-to-face with what feels like his best friend reaching out from beyond the grave, and only hours after they arrive, Lark begins to receive sinister texts. And then they both see it: someone lurking in the shadows of their rental home. Someone who has been expecting them despite the Parrishes being a thousand miles from home.

Within 30 pages the magic happened as it always does with a rattling good read. I fell into the story and was lost. I only submerged about 3 hours later and 150 pages in for refreshment. I was frankly astonished to realise that I hadn't given my grating back pain a second thought in all that time!! Now if that's not black magic I don't know what is.
So I'm writing this review more to thank the author than to give an appraise of the novel.
Just buy it. I promise you won't be disappointed.


I feel like I start a lot of my reviews this way lately, But I was so here for this book. I loved the premise it was deliciously creepy. We all love to rent vacation homes, or at least I do. Thinking about one by itself on an island in Maine in fall was very tantalizing. I found myself drawn in quickly to the story about a family who was renting this island house. I loved at first, reading about each member of the family it’s set up the mystery nicely. Again, at first. BUT THEN, MY GOD, the amount of self talk that went on and on was probably the most I have ever read in a book. I am talking more than Joe Goldberg here. Like on a level that the characters pretty much only thought things in their mind repetitively and barely ever spoke anything to advance the story in anyway. Infuriating.
Now the whole plot device of telling a story, the same story, through multiple characters can work out really well, unfortunately for this book it did not. All it did was have the characters repeat themselves over and over. I almost feel like the author needed to make the book bigger so she constantly was having each character do self talk about the same situation over and over. For some reason it just did not work at all. Ok, I finally get a scene where something was explained, like for example the mom would scream and the next person would run in and we would find out why the mom screamed, then it would start back all over with a new character when she heard the scream outside and then what she thought about the scream, who might be screaming and why they were screaming and her thoughts walking into the house about the scream, when we already know who screamed and why but we then had to go back over it with each character it was just maddening. Also, I figured out what was going on very quickly so that might have also had something to do with it. The second half of the book I found myself skimming pages just for some plot advancement. The characters just kept self talking all the way up to the end. The last two pages they actually did some thing but by then I was just so frustrated I no longer cared. This book could have really been some thing, in fact in the middle of the book I left a midpoint review stating how and wrapped I was in the story and was so happy to be reading it. Big miss for me.

The Parrish family arrive at Raven’s Head in the hope of regrouping after a tumultuous year. Their son Leo recently lost his best friend after a devastating car wreck, their daughter Lark was recently ghosted by her new boyfriend and Ezra and Poppy’s marriage is hanging by a thread. As soon as they arrive, though, the decision to stay on a totally isolated island with nothing but a rickety old boat connecting them to civilization, seems more and more foolish. Not long after arriving, unease settles in on all family members. Leo feels the presence of his deceased friend, Lark encounters two menacing strangers when they are in town getting groceries, Ezra’s mind is playing tricks on him and Poppy can’t shake the sense that something is off about the house. When a storm hits the island and renders the family helpless, their fears become a reality. They have company and every dark secret they’ve been keeping comes to a violent head.
This is a classic stalker tale with a unique flair that Alhborn adds to all of her writing. Told in multiple points of view, I loved getting each character’s inner dialogue. We learn the hopes, fears and struggles that plague them and this helps us better understand each of their motivations. I think Ania best captured angsty teen Lark. So many things about her are your typical (annoying) teen girl and yet she’s at that tumultuous age caught between still being a little girl and bursting into adulthood. In the end she may have been my favorite of them simply for the accuracy and relatability of her character. This is a well-paced suspense leading up to a thrilling climax. It is creepy, gripping and will keep you on edge as you watch the entire family mess unravel. Alhborn also throws enough unexpected twists to keep you guessing how this terrifying cat and mouse situation could possibly play out. Finally, it’s also a gentle reminder of how easily stalkers can get to you these days if they so choose.
