Review

Stony and his family head to New Hampshire for a short vacation but before leaving their path crosses with that of Leopold and Abraham, serial kidnappers and killers. The family is ultimately caught and held captive tied to trees in a remote area of the forest. This extremely dark and creepy story will appeal to many older readers who are fans of the macabre and stay with them long after they read the last page. The book is not very long which will also be of interest to reluctant readers who are drawn to the genre.

Overall Book Score: excellent
