On the surface of this deep and rippling novel, you’ll find
a woman recovering from a crime that she was neither the perpetrator nor the
casualty. As soon as you swim a little deeper, you’ll be submerged in a
thrilling web of loathing, suspicion and revenge. This new novel (June 2017)
will hook you right from the very beginning with its relatable, anxious
protagonist who emerges from the wreckage of someone else’s sin with the sole
purpose in life of protecting her children. Gina Royal and her kids are
running, but who will be the first menacing hunter to track them down finally?
Stillhouse Lake, by Rachel Caine, is a phenomenal novel and
it’s one of those very rare books that feels truly unique. Caine has managed to
add a level of psychology to the text that will encourage you to evaluate your
own beliefs of killers and the people whom the damage. The setting is also
GREAT; nice and creepy.
This is the next thriller for you if you love original
stories of mothers thrashing back against the most ferocious and threatening
citizens of this world in which we all struggle to survive.
