Many thanks to NetGalley, Harlequin Trade Publishing | Hanover Square Press, and Harlequin Audio for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of this wonderful novel by Ellery Adams, with the audiobook perfectly narrated by Courtney Patterson. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars!
In 1980s Cold Harbor, every woman is striving for something better, sometimes against all odds. The town also has a mysterious resident who is finally making an appearance, with a deadly mission in mind. As fear spreads, can a young girl and her ally uncover the darkness?
This was so unique in the best of ways – kind of a mash up between historical women’s fiction, domestic suspense, horror, and even coming-of-age. All these different genres were smashed together into this creepy, funny, entertaining novel that I couldn’t stop listening to. Go into this one as blind as possible for maximum enjoyment. The tale is told from multiple POV, including the monster. I especially liked the storyline of the women searching for their place where men have such control and some are the monsters among us. The narration was amazing – each voice was distinct, making it easy to discern the characters. So good!
