Mass market novel in the SK/McCammon mold that manages to rise above the mediocre by taking some chances with the usual horror plot tropes. Not Shakespeare by any means but buoyed up by above average prose and well drawn characters. A nice entertaining read with a bittersweet finish. ( ) In a small village in Somerset, England, thirty years ago, ten-year-old Melanie Parr met a horrible fate during a storm. She was a very bad, evil child. Now she is back and she wants revenge on those she holds responsible... At first, I was enjoying this book, it was creepy with good atmosphere. The young girl Melanie was horrible. But I really disliked how things turned out at the end. A disappointing read. In a small English farming village, Alex watches and a storm rages and her life falls apart around her. Inside the unrelenting storm, strange children are appearing and mysterious deaths are occurring. Slowly Alex unwinds the mystery of the last time such a storm came to town, 30 years ago. This is a really good "ghost" story. It is creepy and compelling. I really liked many of the characters, flawed as they were. This is a great winter's read. Curl up with something warm to drink and enjoy. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
