I can honestly say I've never read anything like this before. Two disturbed people correspond and in the process drive each other deeper in to madness. The reader is in the head of one or the other at all times, taking the concept of "unreliable narrator" to new heights (or depths). Nicole Cushing has again proven that there are still original stories to be told in dark fiction.I felt that I saw the ending coming which took away a little of the impact and I preferred her previous novella, Children of No One, over this one so I can't go the full 5 stars. 4.5 stars (rounded up!).
