Official Summary
An old man is dying.

When the old man is dead they will come for him.

And they will come for her, to make him hurt.

My Two Cents
Well, based upon the "Official Summary" this book seems to be pretty lame and a LOT cliched.

Have you ever had one of those impulse library check-outs - one that you weren't even going to use up the energy to bring to the desk but decided...ah, why not? If it stinks, I can stop reading it and just bring it back? But it didn't just turn out to be mildly amusing and perhaps worth the 1 or 2 calories burned picking it up off the shelf...but it turned out to be wonderful?? Doesn't happen often but I am here to tell you that this is exactly what happened to me with this book.

Was it a little bit lame and perhaps a bit cliched? Yes. I just don't think you can get away from that in this genre. But it was a Mystery/Thriller that had a complex and interesting story and it was really rather beautifully written to boot. And I have read enough of these books to know that that is almost NEVER the case.

Warning! There is one part of the book that gets pretty gross and graphic that frankly I could have done without, but it wasn't enough to ruin the book.

I will be checking out more from this author so stay tuned.
