Andrew Morrison sacrificed everything—his childhood, his education, and the girl of his dreams—to look after his alcoholic mother. But enough is enough, and now he’s determined to get out and live his life. That means trading the home he grew up in for a rented room in the house of an old childhood friend— both of which are in sorry shape.
The only thing worse than Drew’s squalid new digs and sullen new roommate is the envy he feels for the house next door: a picture-perfect suburban domicile straight out of Norman Rockwell, with a couple of happy householders to match. But the better acquainted he gets with his new neighbors—especially the sweet and sexy Harlow Ward—the more he suspects unspeakable darkness beyond the white picket fence.
Look at that cover....it is so subtle and I do hope the story carries that same subtility. It is getting dark earlier and though I know I should not I like to read horror stories better in winter than summer. It is a atmosphere thing I guess. When I saw this cover and read the synopsis I got chills already and I am really hoping to be able to read this book somewhere in the upcoming winter months.

I know we're told never to judge a book by it's cover but this wouldn't be a bad thing because it looks awesome! I'm not sure it isn't a bit creepy for me but still going to add it to my list to be considered next time I'm looking for a good read. I'd be interested to hear your views on it once you've read it. I'm a new follower btw. Thanks for stopping by my WW :)
ReplyI don't have time to read a lot of "adult" fiction (as opposed to YA), but maaaaaan...
