Review: Starts out with great atmospheric intensity, but loses some throughout...

I love Gary Fry's style of writing, particularly with his shorter works.  This story centers around Jane, an unmarried, pregnant model, with a strong Christian upbringing.  While there are certainly some extremely unsettling moments in this novella (the house that she modeled at was particularly good!), the story then moved into some more "common areas" that took a bit away from that intensity, IMO.  I didn't find Jane's character particularly believable as she kept contradicting herself on her own beliefs throughout.  Overall, I feel that if more had been said about the history of the Catching family, and the location more centered in the area of the ancestral home, this would have been much stronger novella.
