![]() ![]() I loved Ellerie and her courage as well as the mysterious Whitaker who stole my heart along with hers. ![]() I stayed up late, laundry sat unwashed, and I was utterly entranced by all the characters in this story. I was blown away by the build-up and the dark atmosphere. There also is a dramatic event in the beginning of the book that sets up the ENTIRE book, leaves us wondering about two characters, and its never resolved. This is a stunning sophomore novel from Craig, author of House of Salt and Sorrows. But in small towns, darkness often isn’t outside, but within the hearts of its residents. Bells and great pyres keep the darkness at bay, but when strangers appear and Ellerie’s brother Sam starts acting bizarre and hostile, Ellerie finds herself wondering what she would trade to have her parents home and everything back to normal. Ellerie with her twin brothers and sisters live in the peaceful Amity Falls that sit on the edge of a dangerous wood. ![]()
