Review: Downright Terrifying
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 02 15, 2013
The complex plot of ghost hunting, betrayal, and loss pulled me into the frightening novel of horror and suspense.Even though the Woodsman's creepiness permeates the story, there is so much beyond the supernatural element in this novel. Russell brilliantly develops the Dirty Half Dozen and realistically shows how one graduation prank alters their lives forever. Thirty years later, the reunion of the Dirty Half Dozen rips open healed wounds, especially when the group must face the Woodsman again. Effectively integrating the present with the past, the author passionately explores the personal sacrifices these characters have made ever since that night at the water tower.The perfect balance of character growth and downright terrifying encounters with the Woodsman, Sacrifice is an entertaining novel with a pulse-pounding climax that will leave you emotionally spent and heartbroken.I was provided a copy of the book by BTS eMag for purpose of an honest review. I was not compensated for this review - all conclusions are my own responsibility.
