WOW!CREEPY!VERY DARKINSANELY CAPTIVATING!A THRILLER THAT TWISTS THE READERINSIDE & OUTTIM IS FEARLESS WITH HIS CHARACTERS!BOOK REVIEW:I could so easily see this book made into a play. I visualise the stage with the left hand corner set up as the interview room where Chief Inspector John Walker, the suspect, Ben McCloud and Ms. Hughes, the Appropriate Adult sit and the interview takes place. Ben's story is recorded regarding the events that took place at Black Hill Farm.The lights go dark over left of centre stage.The lights go on over centre stage. The scenes are acted out from Ben's point of view, telling the story of Black Hill Farm.Right of centre stage, would be John's scenes.This is an incredible read, very dark and twisted. If you have read any of Tim's Kiera Hudson series, he doesn't shy away from gore, dark moments and twists and turns in his story telling.Hold on to your seats in this tale of Andy and Ben, cousins who live at Black Hill Farm with Andy's father, Uncle Michael. Ben is an orphan and he has come to live with his relatives.This story has few characters. Andy, Ben, Uncle Michael, Parker, the fortunetella, John Walker and of course last but not least, Emily-the-old-cow.Andy and Ben are characters that I felt almost sad for. They have many secrets that are dark and dangerous. They are barely holding on.Tim weaves a lot into this book and what happens at the end............EeeEeeppppp!!This is a very different, twisted, dark, captivating tale which has even more to offer the reader in book 2, Andy's Diary.This is not a happy tale filled with unicorns and rainbows, it is a stunningly twisted tale of characters who want to be loved and have been let down too much by those that should have cared and not given enough time with those that did.Tim in my eyes is unfolding to become a true Master of deceiving the reader.Michelle
